Hey, i recently bought a FC which it doesn't drive due to one side of the shaft that's connecting from inside the differential to the axle snapped. and i tried doing researches everywhere just couldn't find the correct name for the specific part... help?
right now i have the differential open and both shaft is out since one snapped inside, and was wondering if theres any mazda made car who runs the same size "shaft" that's also usable for this 88 GXL NA FC RX7?
thanks guys

 

Are you referring to the stub shaft?

A GXL should have an LSD.

So in theory, the part number is P0167-27-270A.

If Mazda doesn't have it, then they are a dime a dozen used. Many people, including myself, have extras.

 

Thanks the parts number was very helpful ! called local mazda dealer and they ordered it for me will be tomorrow !
btw is this part tent to break?is it hard to get used? because i looked everywhere junkyard part store all of them were telling me that my car is too old for anything

 

They don't tend to break unless it is power related. I broke one, but at 500HP on the drag strip.

 

Thanks ! i guess i wont have to stock those parts then :P

 

you could have asked this here. no need for a whole new thread.

 

Well my apology :P i thought this section was for all the newbs like me

 

it is for newbies. i'm not saying not to ask questions or not to post new threads. i encourage you (and others) to do both. i'm just saying if your question is related to a thread you already recently posted, then go ahead and use the existing thread until all issues are resolved. at the very least it makes future searching easier.

 

Wait... So I can use a gxl rear diff in my 86 n/a without having to change a lot of stuff over, as opposed to having to change driveshaft,and half shafts like with a turbo 2 diff?

 

yes.
