Hi there matey, those numbers are just casting numbers, and unless someone has an identical box just sitting around, I dont think they are goung to help much
.
Toyota manual boxes "generaly" use a number of different types of yokes, the "T" series for the 2T/ another "T" series for the 3T, and a further "T" series for the 4A engines ie. sprinter.
However as you have an 18RGU, your box will be either a "P" series, or a "W" series. These all use the same yoke, which is common across the Celica/Supra range. until the intro of the Getrag in the JZA80 series Supra. 18RC/xM powered Corona's, and xM powered Crowns of the same era, generally will have the same yoke.
Lots and lots of options from which to choose as a donor vehicle.
regards Chuck.

I would suggest most likely a W50 (5 speed) or W40 (4 speed). As mentioned, the casting numbers mean nothing. A yoke from most old manual RWD Toyotas will do...
I found out recently that the tailshaft yoke on a W57 is exactly the same as the input shaft (ie can put yoke on input shaft to ensure it is correct).. this MAY be the case for other Toyota boxes.
