urgent!! tailshaft trouble for my manual conversion

[biglad]

Hi guys
I'm almost done with my 6mge/w58 manual conversion in my ms123 crown and the stock Tailshaft is too short (by about 60mm). Does anyone here know a longer front shaft to use without getting a custom front shaft made? I'm obviously a budget and can't exactly afford a custom shaft . the front shaft (from end of gearbox output yoke to end flange after the center bearing) is 640mm. so i need a shaft that is approx 690-700mm from end to end.
Any help would be hugely appreciated!
Cheers
Mitch

sorry, i dont have any info on the front shafts. but have you called up a drive shaft place just to ask about a front half ? it might not even be that expensive.

take the whole shaft off and see if it needs new uni's. it might need to be rebuilt anyway.

A new front shaft will set you back about $200 incl balancing.

The only car I know that may be of assistance is an SA63 Celica, but they are fairly rare.

yep you can just get a section of shaft extended,

i got stung when i got my soarer tail shaft extended, was $600 including new uni's. but its the only place close by other then sydney that could do the work

Manual SA63 is around 720mm I think, from memory...

It will have the right yoke, but I'm not sure on the center bearing flange
