MA61 F series IRS LSD + gears into YR22 F series?

[Hen]

I can confirm that Rallystanza's tried fitting ST141 Corona discs onto a YR22 diff and it doesn't work. The rectangular bolt spacing on the end of the diff tubes is larger on the Corona.

Apparently (no personal experience) they do fit up to earlier F series drum braked diffs (MX23 etc) and E series diffs from YR20s and YR21s, just not the YR22 F series.

shit comment withdrawn, i must have an mx13 diff then not a tarago one. i vote for you getting an mx13 one then, it's definitely bolt up on that

[ecko]

any ideas what diff will fit using the original corona drum brake setup?
do any other diffs just bolt straight in?

Dont like the chances of finding something decent that suits the BW mounts dude.

Cheers for the help guys, ill be running the standard drums so the handbrake still works well.

Now to find a diff.

[old_school_jap1]

RA60 t series diffs are decent and bolt up. you need the rear half of the ra60 tailshaft tho

[ecko]

i was thinking of cutting the BW mounts off and welding them on a suitable diff...

[old_school_jap1]

that is the way that most people do diff swaps

[ecko]

lol yeah i know it just soudned like konakid thought i meant a literal bolt in diff

[Konakid]

So i got myself an F292 for 122 bucks

Now i need to know peoples experiences with rebuilt MA61 lsd's, are they a decent clutch type lsd?

Id be getting one rebuilt very tight, just after others experiences.

cheers.

MA61 LSD,s are shit full stop , not enough clutch area inside them , they have splined side gears(not the axel spline) to take a splined steel clutch plate but theres no splined plate just spacers.
Only RA40 GT lsd centres have the splined clutch plates and are not made anymore
When you use one in a live axel diff, even a good condition one they single leg sometimes.
I feel they are better suited to IRS setups as the bog down of rear helps the LSD work better.

but if you must here are the rebuild kits; http://forums.club4ag.com/zerothread?id=46901
if cambelt reads this, are those new clutch plates in the link above the ra40 gt type?

[Konakid]

Thanks!

Thats exactly what i needed to know, guess its getting locked until i have enough for a 2way.

Anyone know what handbrake cables i can use? Did the corona IRS f series come with drums or discs only?

That tarago cables were really weird and snaked around the box and motor so pretty sure i cant use them.

[old_school_jap1]

the only _t14_ coronas that came with f series were the irs ones and they are disk. ra60/5 were drum tho so they may be worth a look

[Konakid]

Hmmm now to find some rear half handbrake cables from a drum brake F series that fit.

Guess i could mix and match the front half if a rear section is slightly longer etc.

Whats F series drum that s readily available? Nothing? Haha

[takai]

RA65. 4 of them at UPullIt North.

[Konakid]

For real? Drum F?

Win. Will be making a trip there, cheers.
