Looking to upgrade the whole rear end. and was wondering if anyone has done a ae86 rear live axle swap before?
Ive sourced a JDM 10 stud diff ae86 axle which you can buy aftermarket 1.5/2way LSD's from a factory and just bolts up. The ADM ae86 are 8 stud i know they have no lsd available for them.
it just looks like a straight forward swap, just need leaf brackets welded on, possibly shortened, axles are wider so wider U bolts, tail shaft etc... Brakes i haven't looked into to much yet, they came with drums but you can buy disc upgrade kits, not sure if its still cable driven or not. Need alittle more reading..
After all that is sorted and down the line if the rear sway bar can be still used? 4 link? or even a watts link?
ive seen in japan they used to put ae86 diffs in H165's with a big spacer to be able to bolt in the 10 bolts.. I just thought the ae86 swap would be a common swap, got to be a reason why it hasen't. Anyone?
