Could you use a tail shaft from a celica with a T-series to get the part that meets to the diff and get that chopped and welded to sprinter tailshaft?

What he said ^^^

i have the same prob but im ditching the t50 and gettting a w57 outa a sleeka. Then ill just get my own custom tailshaft as it works out easier that way.

Come to think of it, the sleeka shaft MAY even fit as they are w57/t diff, but the wheel bases could be a lil different

Will have to shorten it to fit a 86. If you going to upgrade diff then the gearbox is not far behind. Save up and get W5X gearbox and T18 diff that the same time.

you need the rear half of the tailshaft off a T18, I think I might start grabbing them soon and selling them off.
