supra driveshaft?
I was checking out a driveline vibration, got under the car and the yoke from the trans to the front ujoint has c-231224 stamped in it with spicer ujoints and clips holding the ujoint in. Internet search turned up a jensen healy page where this is the yoke for the toyota w58 trans. Really! Anyone ever heard of this? I mostly want to eliminate the vibration and I'm thinking the ujoint can be replaced.
Advise?

i know the MKI and MKII supras (early eighties) have a two piece driveshaft with a hanger bearing in the middle (though god knows why, the diff is bolted to the chassis on the MKII)
if i was a sucker for punishment id go remove the driveshaft outta my MKII and stuff it in the FB... but its cold outside. maybe ill take a pic for you later.

yuppers, W58 five speed manual, fully compatible with the later 7m series motors (and the rare, retarded cousin 6m series)
what spooks me is the later MKIV N/A supras used the w58 as well, but i THINK the bellhousing is marginally different.. i cant get a straight answer short of buying a 1/2jz and bolting it up to my MKII W58.
edit: spelling and grammar
