getrag axles urgent!!! - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

i already posted this in the fwd area but figured maybe the awd would have an answer. i bought a good getrag transmission and welded the vcu so i could install it in my fwd 92 dodge stealth es. yes, i sold the good vcu and bought a blown to weld though

. im having a problem trying to figure out what axles i need though. the axles i bought with the getrag will not slide into the wheel hubs correctly. and my fwd axles do not have the correct splines to fit the differential. would an axle from a 93^ n/a slide into the getrag and also the wheel hub of a 92 n/a.

You need tt front hubs.

is that the only way? i dont believe my rims and tires clear the calipers on tt cars if i changed the hubs how could i get them to fit.

I don't know about any of that for sure, i think you can mount your brakes to a tt hub but i'm not sure, i've never converted an na. But i have had both cars and i know for sure that any axle that goes into the getrag is to big for the na hub.

My na was a 1991es, i guess the later bigger axles are compatable. The ones are my car were definitly smaller than the ahles on my tt. The tt axles are the same for all 5 speeds i forgot about the na's changing.

theres a ring on the hub side of the axle that almost looks like a gear, i believe it may have something to do with abs on tts, that gear hits the back of the hub so the part of the axle with threads that sticks out of the wheel bearing doesnt come out far enough for the nut to thread on. it needs to go farther so i can put the cotter pin through. know anything about that?

Ahhh the ABS issue. Let me see if I still have the PM's from my friend who ran into similar issues.

Acrtully you have an ES, you just need to get 93+ NA axles. You will need the Getrag intermediate shaft though.

that would be great i was hoping a 93 na s axles would work much easier than changing the hubs and having to sell my wheels and buy new ones.
