Care to clarify how it differs from non-PS from 4/72 and later? SOR shows same part 4/72 to 7/80 and makes no distinction for ps.

You attachment is dead.

 

[ToyotaMatt]

i have a 1975 NON P/S one now

NOT the same

unless you know more

FJ55 1-79LG-KA not my area of expertise

 

[PabloCruise]

You looking for the entire shaft, eh?
Not just the u-joints?

Nope... not an expert. My first stop for "parts compatibility" is usually SOR. While not infallible, I've had pretty good odds with them

Was it the end yokes that your non-PS version was different?

 

[ToyotaMatt]

Entire shaft please

I meant SOR is my first stop for trying to check compatibility of cruiser parts

 

[ToyotaMatt]

i meant what i said , to help others here on MUD who help me first and foremost ...............

then pay the MAN if i have to ...





BTW i love your avatar John , it's very timeless ......

we just got a little new mexiacn Chwawa puppy , JET black too....



my drive shaft lacks any of the U-BOLTS the older ones have , it looks very clean and modern update compared to the early ones ?


who IS the FJ55 Go To GURU here on MUD , the ORACLE if you will ?


maybe @PabloCruise cruiser knows , he is filled with solid tech ..........

 

[PabloCruise]

Well, the only tech I was thinking of was related to the steering column u-joints.

When I was using a 55 column in my 40 for power steering conversion, I figured out the u-joints are the same part # as an early Corolla drive shaft!

 

[ToyotaMatt]

i was hoping to avoid a custom shaft make up ?

hopefully a plug and play late model 55 yolk to yolk will turn up soon ?

thanks mr. pablo ......

wonder if the early 60 series is correct? except for the length

[cruiserbrett]

Factory power steering intermediate shaft is shorter than non power steering.

I’d be willing to be you could lop an inch off the male spline part to make it fit.
