i started changing my uk box & diff, for a p1 box & diff.

know. i've fitted the diff, but one side seems to pop out (not locked in)
and the other, wont go in....

i know theres lock rings on the shafts, but they are stuck in the diff
do i need to fish these out?

or are the p1 drive shafts different to that on the uk 95 classics.
advice would be nice guys

 

anyone

 

just found out the hard way
there different drive shafts
they wont lock into place, and one is even the wrong size

so off to the wanted section

 

yer i think its the o/s one is too short

 

i've found both sides are different
but i need to get a set asap

thread in wanted section

 

does anyone know if 99/2000 shafts will fit this p1 diff?
im hoping, all subaru did was change the shafts after say 97 like they did with the boxes

fingers crossed hay.
any advice would be great at the moment

 

i think you may get 99 00 type r rear shafts, there fatter, think they for r180 diff not 100% on the diff but very sure about shafts, even think a 00 sti 4dr classic wont do ,it has to be type r i think

 

thanks

the shafts for this p1/sti 4-5 diff
from the looks of it.

just seem to have the same diamitor to both sides, and the lock rings look about the same too

the early uk, thay have one short. and one long going narrow to wards the middle of the shaft
(the ends that fix in the diff)

i've managed to find a set of shafts from a 99 classic, and they look to be the same, or look like they would fit.

the rear diff i beleave are on alot of the imprezas. and is a 4.44
there should be a section just for persons who take this sort of thing on. telling of parts needed and issues they may find

i'll keep you imformed if the shafts fit
