Exactly that its twisted, and a dry shaft is very hard to get in Trinidad. Is there any other dry shaft from another car that can work?

I know that this is a forum for Datsun 1200's, but I need help with my fathers Nissan E20 mini bus. This minibus came without power steering which makes the vehicle very hard to steer especially when its loaded , it holds a capacity of 15 people. Now there are newer models to this minibus that is the E23, E24 and the latest is the E25. I would like to find out if anyone has one of these minibus's and if they ever converted it to power steering, if so please tell me what it is that you did. I was told that the power steering from the E23 or E24 could work, but I haven't seen anyone who did it, so I need some confirmation before we go out and spend money on either of the power steering systems.

Nah its worst than that, its warped meaning that its not straight anymore, when I reach like 50 miles it start to vibrate and make noise. I'm concerned that it may damage my gearbox or differential or even the engine, thats why I need a new one or any other one that could replace it.

My dry/drive shaft is gone and I need a replacement. I'm using an A15 engine and a 4 speed gear box. Is there any other dry/drive shaft besides the original that I can use to replace mine?

Well I'm finally finished installing the rear axle assembly and the two front assembly complete with everything. Boy I had a great time doing it, me and my dad did everthing ourself, but it had a few modifications that I had to do. Anyone installing a complete rear axle assembly from a B210 wagon onto a B210 sedan be prepared for some modifications, I'll post up the mods that I did at later time. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera to take any pics. The only problem that I have now is that my dry/tail shaft needs changing, now I have to try and locate one. However, the rear axle assembly works really well. The front assembly works really well also, the car is riding much better with these new springs and shocks on the front assembly. The rotar and disc brakes are much bigger than the original ones on the B210 sedan, so I guess I'll get better brakes. The other problem that I have, but its a minor one is that my tires were rubbing on the shock assembly when I put it on. The spacing between the rotor and the shock assembly are so close. I solved this by putting in longer studs and a rim spacer. i guess the car wasn't designed to hold broad rims and tires.

Well I went and bought the rear axle assembly for the B210 120Y, I paid $100.00 for the complete thing. The only little concern I have is that its the rear axle assembly for the B210 Wagon not the sedan. My question is will this one still work on my B210 120Y sedan, or will I have to do any modifications? Another thing, the place I bought the rear axle assembly also has from the B210 wagon the two front shocks complete with the coil springs, will these also work on my model?, because I really need front shocks - mines are dead.

Ok thanks I'll take your sugestion into consideration, but one more thing, would the diff on the B210 take the pressure from the A15 engine?

Ok guys thanks for all the help. I have an idea, but I'm not sure it will work, maybe you'll can help me out. Ok what if I buy the complete rear axle assembly for the B310 model and use the parts from it like the Diff, the two axles, the two hubs, and the brakes assemblies and fit them onto my B210 housing. Will these parts fit back on the B210?
