i pretty much finished my turbo conversion and all i need are the halve shafts, but when ever i order them they are always the wrong size. the end that bolts up to diff is always too small?! the diff i used is supposed to be an 1988 turbo 2 anniveriary edition, does anyone know where i can get the shalves from or if there is anything else i can do????

im sure someone has TII shafts they can sell you.



worse case go to a autozone or store like that, order TII shafts, then give yours as cores.

because the na drive shafts are smaller then the t2 drive shafts, you need t2 drive shafts. does not matter what year either they are all the same

i dont need the drive shaft i need the two halve shafts that go from the diff to the tires. when i ordered the shafts i ordered the ones for the 89-91 turbo but when i tried to use them on the 88 turbo diff they where to small, so i was wondering if anyone knows a web site that has the shafts that i need...

they sent you the wrong shafts, just measure what they sent you and what you had already.

Is the Diff US spec or J-spec. I heard of differences on the offset on the flanges to the half shafts.
