Thanks for the measurements and pics! great stuff!

Hmm seems to be 575-580mm about the same as my mx73 5m-ge, I wonder what car I could get a 653mm front drive shaft with a w58 yoke from? sa series celica was is what I have read but maybe another car will have one that fits, keen if anyone around gold coast brisbane has one that would fit, I will post in wanted parts, other measurements are from this tread here

If you are doing an manual conversion into an MX73, then the SA63 tailshaft should almost be perfect (5-10mm short from perfect from memory).

Failing that, its like $180 to get the stock one lengthened.

i got my custom 1 made with new centre bearing for $195 for a place called driveshaft engineering in osborne park. they do good work.
