Re: AE86 rear live axle into 1200?

I used a diff out of a Mazda Bongo van 4x4 the rear diff is LSD and has an offset centre so one axle is already short.

I then bought a 5.1:1 crown wheel/pinion from a RX7.

Brakes, in the rally car i don’t need a hand brake (as i use a hydraulic one) so i run vented rotor and calliper from a Suzuki Swift GTI.

Now I also had custom 2 piece axles made and run the wheel bearing from the AE86 (big double row) and the drive flange from a Nissan Pintara FWD

cost about $3500 all up but have not had a diff or brake problem in 3 years of hard rallying (set and forget) but you don’t need to go that far.
