Got a question in regards to the Rear Axles. As per my thread here [http://www.son240sx.org/forums/showthread.php?t=28882](http://www.son240sx.org/forums/showthread.php?t=28882) I’m restoring the entring under body of my S13 and the last pieces I have to rebuild/powder coat would be the Axles. Problem is I got like 5 or 6 laying around but as far as I’m aware their is no difference between 89-93 USDM Rear Axles whether ABS, Non LSD or with LSD.

Approx lenghts if I remember correct were like 24.5’’ & 26.5’’. One being left, the other being right but other then that, no differences at all correct ? I just dont wanna strip them, Coat them and buy all the parts if their the wrong pieces etc…

Any help is appreciated as always.

Jeff

As long as its the right bolt pattern (5 or 6), there is no difference between ABS/Non-ABS or LSD/Non-LSD. Only difference is JDM versus USDM, but you’ll know that by the bolt pattern.

S13 and S14 axles are apparently identical aswell. By process of elimination I was able to find all this out through [www.driveshaftshop.com](http://www.driveshaftshop.com)
