d.p.n.s Posted June 26 Posted June 26 So from my understanding there may be a few toyotas that use the same driveshafts (bolt pattern wise) Im currently using a cressida rx60 drive shaft in my mk3 cortina with a w50. The front section is perfect fit but the rear section is a little short so im using a spacer I made My rear section is 750mm and im looking for something around 770mm - 785mm Pics of dimensions of mine below Anyone know of what makes models use the same bolt patter . Thanks in advance Quote

Bling Posted July 2 Posted July 2 https://www.toycrazy.net/index1.html Not sure if Mark did driveshaft comparisons. If anyone has though, it will be him, so check the site. @AE25 1 Quote
ajg193 Posted July 6 Posted July 6 Hijack time. Starlet driveshaft has done 43 years now with never being greased. No signs of problems yet. They have no grease nipples from factory. Is it worth trying to disassemble and regrease or best just to use it until it fails? 2 Quote
Bearded Baldy Posted July 6 Posted July 6 Full send until it needs new ones. Which it never will. If you try to disassemble it, you may as well fit new ones while there. They are cheap enough. Or risk dropping one roller off the bench never to be seen again. 1 Quote

I think its only a problem if the driveshaft comes within 2 feet of the ground 2 5 Quote
