Need axle help - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #93701 5 posts Started by snappingturtle
Hey guys, I have a 94 celica with a 2nd gen 3SGTE swap and E153 lsd tranny. I purchased this car 4 years ago with the swap already and now I am having a hard time finding the axle for my car since my inner shaft of the axle broke. The previous owner doesn't know what model or year this transmission is. The outer splines is 26 and inner splines is 24. Anyone know which lsd E153 tranny that has a inner axle with 24 splines?
I don't have that Trans nor do I know for sure. But if I remember correctly from my reading the 153 in a 6gc requires hybrid axles

Yes, the E153 swaps I've seen and heard of, had hybrid axles. My outer shaft broke once and I replaced it with a 91 camry V6 axle. It ran fine for two years but now my inner axle shaft on the driver's side broke and I am having a hard time finding the right one since I don't know what year and model this E153 lsd tranny came out of. Just trying to see if anyone here on 6GC has an E153 tranny swap that uses an axle with 24 splines on the inner shaft end. Will take pictures of the tranny and axle sometime this week. I purchased solara and camry axles but they were all too long.
You use MR2 inners, not Camry or Solara. wink.gif

I wish it was MR2 inners. I think the MR2 driver side axle has an inboard splines of 20. The one that is on my car has 24. kindasad.gif
