1piece tailshaft vs. 2 piece tailshaft Sun, 26 June 2005 13:55 Go to previous message
As my driveline is rumbling when i take off i thought now might be the time to start working on changing my diff.
I am still hunting down the parts to make a g series rear end, but it came to me today about what i do with the tailshaft that is in there.
the celica ra40 has a 2 piece tailshaft, but i am contemplating making a custom one piece. which brings me to the question.
what is the benefits and drawbacks of using a 1 piece tailshaft and also the benefits and drawbacks of a 2 piece tailshaft.

is it to do with driveline noise, or smoothness, or reliablilty, or something else entirely.

like why would you make a 2 piece tailshaft which just introduces another point of failure in the driveline and a point of power loss.

but why do people steer clear of 1 piece designs.

i tried a quick search under a few criteria but couldn't find anything relevant so if someone knows, i would love to know what is preferred or under what application is a specific type of tailshaft preferred.

cheers
barnsey
