I know the st185 will work, but can somebody tell us if the st205 will work.
Im assuming that the st205 axles will work for the 6th gen. Please somebody correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks,

You need hybrid axles no matter what. You can use St205 outta 1/2 shafts and MR2 inners or Solara inners, depending on what tranny.

I'm using Camry outer shafts and MR2 inner shafts, and they work great.

So either way will work.

Well mounts are mounts and I have MR2 mounts and GT mounts. Those can be basically welded wherever. I'd like to know the specifics of where.

I had the ST205 axles and actually would not work for my swap with the MR2 Tranny. The reason is the newer axles don't have the hex screws that allow the two different types to bolt up. Because the shaft sizes are different, I don't believe you can do anything else to try and adjust the two to combine. I ended up using 185's with the MR2, but am still killing them. I have gone through two now, and after talking to a few people think it is because I also have to use the Hubs from the ST205.

The first set I actualy seized the Joint up between the inner and outer. This in turn bent the inner. $400 later I had a new set of both. This time the same joint is stretched so far, the joint is now clicking like it is ready to come apart.

I can get you pics, it will be a few days. It is at a friends house, he is trying to custom fab me the metal plate that holds the rubber seal between the hood and the bumper. I believe we usead the ST205 mounts as I had the front clip. I will take pics when I get it back.

Yeah unfortunately I dont have those. I was thinking mounts must basically be the same, except there are in different locations.

i believe the axels that you're using ( st185 outer shafts) are a wee bit too short. That's why they keep going out on you. I've been using the camry outer shaft with for a while now, and have'nt had a problem. I've ran the car hard, and the axels don't pop out or break.

Super,

As for the mounts, I know the ST205 mounts work cause the are the ones I'm using and there was no modification needed. I know that you can use the GT front and rear mount and brackets. As for the driver side mounts, i know you can't use the GT mounts because the bracket is different and will not line up properly. The MR2 mounts will line up perfectly on the tranny, but not sure how it will mount up to the bracket welded on the chassis of the celica. That's why i didn't take a change and just bought the ST205 mounts. I just didn't feel like welding a mount.

I know you asked for me to post some info on mounting this tranny, but everything is pretty much straight forward. Now, if you have certain questions, by all means, just ask and i'll give you my input.

hope that helps.

Where'd you find your ST205 mounts? I have a couple MR2 mounts that came with the tranny I also have the GT mounts (whcih are already on the car) so if the mounts on the cross-member already work, then I may just have the one drivers side welded, that maybe less of a headache.

I had to order my mounts through the dealer. But yeah, you just have to worry about the driver side mount. The others are ok.

Excellent so it looks like what I'm going to end up doing is replacing the rubber mounts cuz mine are shot with better ones and I'll have the one welded in. The ST205 mounts will be pricey? How much you end up spending on them? But thanks I think thats good news.

I thought your supposed to used the inner shaft of the E153 tranny and the outer shaft of the st185. how does the camry/solara outer shaft works.
If that works, then that means that you can use the whole axle from the solara/camry e153 tranny.

Please let me know.
Thanks
