Hi,
I have been having big hassles trying to sort out drive shafts for my AW11 MR2, into which I installed an AE101-LSD-E58 gearbox.
For me I could only use the passenger shaft as is. The Driver side shaft was too long. (AE101 has wider track and motor closer to middle of vehicle - about 40-50mm).
The E58(AE101-SC-LSD) and E153 (93 onwards Turbo SW20) are the same piece of hardware, with different bellohousings (I think). The passenger side (short) drive shaft from the E58 viscous LSD is a unique shaft which you must have in order to properly engage into the viscous LSD. Actually the driver side shaft is 'special' too as the splines are 30mm long instead of the more usuall 25mm approx that the E51 shafts have. Of the E58 shafts only the passenger E58 shaft has a C-CLIP.
I am 99% sure an 93+ SW20 Turbo drive drafts will work, but the AE101 has a wider track than the AW11, not sure about AE92.
For me this mean the drivers side LONG shaft with the straight section is about 40mm too long, so I need to use the 93+LSDSW20Turbo (phew) intermediate shaft (shorter) and then bolt that to the short section for my E51 passenger shaft!!!
Not sure if I can just use the whole SW20 drivers side shaft, but with my stub axle.
Hope this helps..
Cheers, Nick.
