95 probe axles in a 92 mx-3
Ok I'm doing engine swap along with a trany swap and I got a probe for the parts car and it came with every thing my main question atm is. Does the probes axles fit in the mx-3s? I'm thinking no cause the probe is probably a bit wider

Re: 95 probe axles in a 92 mx-3
just use your oem tranny, plenty strong to withstand bolt ons and you dont have to waste time/money trying to make it work. Just use the motor sell the tranny for more monies ![Mr. Green :mrgreen:](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)

Re: 95 probe axles in a 92 mx-3
also as a side note the splines are a different count from the probe/mx6 to the mx3 so they would not work with your spindles as well.

Re: 95 probe axles in a 92 mx-3
are you boosting it? why would you need to put a probe tranny in? I have a klze with multiple bolt ons, limited slip,fidanza 9lb flywheel, centerforce dual friction, and the car has seen nothing but track time for the past 5 years without a failure so im curious why?

Re: 95 probe axles in a 92 mx-3
No they're not, they're identical and swappable (refering to the trannies themselves), the only ones that are different are the LSD varients from overseas, although there is one that matches, it's hard to get a hold of.stereoking15 wrote:also as a side note the splines are a different count from the probe/mx6 to the mx3 so they would not work with your spindles as well.
People have been swapping Probe, Mx6 and 626 trans for many years, the 626 and Mx-6 having a taller 5th and a longer final drive, some perfer it when swapping a KL into an Mx-3.

Re: cv axles
for the record, probe axles won't even slide into mx-3 hubs. the spline is wrong, and it is about .125" bigger diameter.
and longer too I guess
does anyone know if the probe spindles will bolt onto the mx-3 a-arms? it would be nice to have the beefier axles, and a 5 bolt wheel hub.....
