Does anyone know how many splines the Evo 3 output shaft is? As I'm about to do some drivetrain work. I'd like to replace the output shaft while it's all apart.
 
See my post above. Its late,I knew what I meant ! :lol:
But yeah its 23.
This may be of interest to you

(if your rich that is!!)
 
Lol I know of a cheaper option locally available that's being made by ppg. I however would be happy with a STD one from the states. Not building a 9 sec car. This is the part in question : My link
 
Anyone know if the gearbox output shaft to the transfer case in an evo 3 is the same shaft as in a w5m33.... gearbox in an hsg rvr.? If so Im trying to find part number for output shaft seal from gearbox and guess it would be same for evo 3 if shafts are same. Local parts dealers up here couldnt even tell me what oil to put into the transfer case when i blew a seal because............."the rvr was imported in". No shit..........where were evo 1-3 and cc gsr made to in Australia???? :blink: And they couldnt even give me the transfer case fluid details (type/quantity) for evo 1-3, ccgsr and they are authorised mitsi dealer up here!!!!
 
Yeah. I think there was a thread on them last week

Correct. and this would be it.... :huh:

Mate they sound like a bunch of fuckwits :blink: :blink:

If I was you I wouldnt bother dealing with that bunch of dead shits again and would contact Meek Automotive on Monday. They will help you out straight away and definately know what they are on about...

I am well aware of that thread, but as everyone would agree theres always more than 1 way to skin a cat ;)
 
Should the output shaft from the gearbox come out of the gearbox easily?

I have tried to fit my transfer case today and it didn't fit securely. Then I tried to removed the transfer case and the the output shaft from the gearbox came out instead of the transfer case coming off.
 
I'm still dealing with them and they are yet to reply in regards to sending the new bearings. I have sent them 4 emails.
The last reply i got was them stating they set up another test package, weighed it, and it came out to the weight that was on my paperwork. The only way i could explain that was that they still had the OLD bearings pressed on. No new ones were sent.
After all this drama, I definately wouldn't recommend them unless you lived in the USA.
 
Hypo, there is a small ballbearing that retains that shaft. Either that ball bearing is in the bottom of your box OR it was forgotten when assembled (if it was taken apart at some stage). The output shaft is generally loose though.

Thanks

Jamo has covered it off for me on a evo oz thread. I can actually take the whole input shaft out of the gearbox.

So I guess gearbox out and back to the builder.
 
Its an easy enough job to do yourself...just remove the 12mm bolts that hold the end cover to gearbox, I think there is 10 of them from memory, just do it carefully so you dont disturb the sandwich plate. Then remove the circlip which holds the viscous coupling and slide/tap that off the output shaft.
This will reveal a hole in the top of the output shaft which you just drop the detent ball( ball in the pic I posted above) into and Bobs your mothers, cousins, uncle !
Then replace the viscous coupling, circlip, clean old glue off gearbox and end cover re-glue the end cover back on and put the bolts back in..Thats it..
Its piss easy to do yourself....

Agreed... but I just paid to have it rebuilt.

So they can do it. Either way I now have to take the box back out of the car.
