I have an early celica released in oct in 1993, but it is a GT 1994 celica hatch 2.2L.

Im trying to get a new axle for both fronts (P/D), but when the axle came in...it was shorter than the ones i had. i did a comparison to the axles of the 94-99 and my was longer than the after market axles. I did another match up with the 90-93 celica axles and it matched perfectly, except the passenger side of the 90-93 celica axles didn't have the "triangle Axle Bracket Brace."

ANY one had this problem, if so, how did you resolve it....what brand did you buy and where did you buy it from?

(note: i got the Master Pro seel Axles for life-time. but these aftermarket axles wasn't long enough compare to the oem i had).

any thoughts?

they are giving you 5th gen axles.
for some reason, some companys mix them up, or list them together.
you need 94-99 axles. (lol obviously)

naa, i've had good luck with the axles ive bought, but my cousin did not, took a couple before he got the right ones.
IIRC lagos made a post at some point about axle part #'s and where to get them from.
