[halfshaft difference...]

where is the shaft shorter? the joint? the shaft? the flange?

[Locked VLSD?]

So im trying the z32 vlasd swap into my z31.

 

I've swapped pumpkins.

 

I've modified the shafts enough where they will go in.

 

The Problem I'm having is, when i put the shorter shaft in, it wont go in all the way, maybe sticking out about 2mm than normal. I am ok with it sitting like this because the stop ring is caught.

 

but like another 2mm before i get to this depth, the VLSD gets locked and i cant turn them at different speeds...

 

I didn notice the further it went in, the harder it got (maybe i was getting tired)

 

But is it supposed to be so tight that i turn the input shafts by hand?

[halfshaft difference...]

so if the wriet says to cut the z31 half shafts by 1.5" for the z32 LSD swap, i would only need to cut appx 3/8"...?

[halfshaft difference...]

I pulled the half shafts form a 280zxt.

are there any differences between them and my 86 na z31?

 

the look the same, and have the same diff, but i wasn't sure of the length... i dissembled them and forgot to measure them...

[z32 VLSD swap and shaft fitment]

some opinions/advice would be much appreciated.

[z32 VLSD swap and shaft fitment]

So, it has been said to do this to the z32 input shafts....

My input shafts from my z32 look like these...

I disassembled the half shafts, the spider gear slid over the spline...

Does that need to be welded?

 

Also, if the shorter input shaft has to be splined deeper, and have a new ring groove, why cant i just use the T-T shaft? They look the same and already have the correct ring grove.

I have not compared the longer side yet...

I also have a theory that if the shorter shaft has it's splines increased, it will not need to be shortened to slide all the way in...

[Rear caliper and parking brake... works backwards???????????]

one says t2, other says t3, both are lefties and came off the same year...

what would cause this?

[Rear caliper and parking brake... works backwards???????????]

so when the parking brake is pulled, only the passenger's wheel is stopped.

 

few months back, i saw the drivers cable was unhooked. i hooked it back up, but when i pushed the mechanism away)simulate the ebrake down) the wheel locked up. I pulled it froward (simulate the ebrake up) wheel spun freely.

 

I took it apart and got some pics... but when i put it back together the wheel has some resistance to it...

I'm going to get another caliper becacuse i dont want to mess up my brakes/rotor.
