1jz half shafts

[giterboosted]

so i have a 1jz lsd for my car in hopes to refresh the rear end a lil bit, but the problem is that i need the half shafts from a jdm rear end and i dont know where to find them, does anyone have any idea where i mite go about looking?

or does anyone have any by any chance?

Do you mean the output shafts?
The half shafts (they go from the diff output flanges, to the wheel) are the same.

If you have a JDM 1JZ helical LSD, and you need the output shafts (also called the output flanges),
Good luck !
Almost impossible to find.
The retaining ring grove is further towards the end, than the US shafts,
and they (the US ones) will not retain properly.

I have seen guys machine the US shafts, and add a retainer onto the the end.
I will try to find the info on who does it.

The JDM lsd's are weak, and fail a lot. There's bound to be someone with a broken diff that you could get the half shafts from. I would not recommend this lsd anyways. I tried one out and it failed within just a couple of months at only 375hp.

You must have had one of the early T-1 LSDs (tangential gear).
The newer T-2s (parallel gear) helicals are much stronger.

Which car did you get this from? Which model is it?
