I know this has been thrashed to oblivion but hopefully someone will have a 2 word answer.
Anyway, I'm not that familiar with toyota LSD's, but from other posts I've gathered the LSD centre from a f-series diff will bolt into another f-series (open)diff.
What I'm curious about is can both of the original axles/or stub axles be used with the new LSD centre??
I know with my mazda & mitsi LSD I had to get 1 of the stub axles that went with the original diff.
As this would be a bit of a problem if you got the LSD centre from a live axle and put it into a IRS diff.

You can put an F series centre from a live axle into an F series IRS carrier, and vice versa. You have to swap the bearings as they are a different size, but apart from that it will bolt right in.

Talk about digging up the oldest thread on the forums!
Just wondering if anyone can confirm that they have actually done this.
I just purchased an MA61 LSD to put into my MX13, can anyone who has actually done this/had this done/seen a car with this done confirm that it is actually possible?
Lots of people say it is... just haven't met anyone who's actually done it.

For what it is worth, going back to the original theme, I have a G-series RN25 Hilux axle and the LSD centre from a Surf accepted the original axles without a problem.
And yes I know that everybody on this forum knows that ! Mitch.

Someone on the forums has definitely done it before (wish I could remember who it was). I asked this exact question a while ago... I assume you didn't do a search!
Anyway yes it can be done so stop worrying.

Quote: | I would love to offer some advice but I have recently been informed that the so called F292 diff I pulled out of an MX23 was actually an E series that may have originally came from an earlier corona. So I have wasted 3 weekends and a couple of hundred bucks upgrading from a T to an E series diff.
A MA61 centre definitly won't fit an E series axle.
Oh and that explains why the axles didn't look much bigger than the T series.
Not Happy.

Yeah, the early MkII's are an E-series... you will also find that the early 4 speed is not a W40!

You mustn't have read my post then You will notice that this thread is from 2002!
Well, it has been answered in another thread - it is definitely posible and at least two peole have done it...

Yeah I was aware that not all Mk2's had F series but this one had F292 stamped on the build plate. The diff maust have been changed at some stage over the last 30 years.
You can't help bad luck.

Crap. Now I'm going to have to pull my MkII diff apart to see if it's actually an F series!

E series axles are only 1mm bigger than T series and the same spline as an Rt141 BW axle. I am told the F is bigger but I am not sure what size though.

I have the axles out of my car, well just enough to get the centre out without undoing brake lines.
Measured out near the disc the diametre of my F series axles is 33mm hope this helps any body.

I take it 7M-Brisbane was referring to MKII Coronas, not MKII Supras (MA61).
My MA61 (Euro spec) is an '82 model (so is pretty 'early'), with a F series LSD. The LSD from an Aus spec MA61 (Sept 83) bolted straight in.

hey gold28, any ideas for LSD for the E series
(in all seriousness I also have an E series, so would be interested, although I have a feeling that nothing is available )
Cheers

E series LSD.
Never looked for one because I never entertained teh thought of using one. They came in Hiaces, so I guess being found in a commercial, you may get lucky, but I haven't come across one before.
I am not really going to bother with it either. Can't see the point really.
Anyone know of a MX23 "F" series diff going cheap??????
