The\u00a0Missing Link to the\u00a0<\/span>R180\u00a0install with R160 hubs<\/span><\/p>\n

These are what Suberdave’s Custom Races look like:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Left: 2005+ STI inner \u2013 Center: custom STI \/ WRX \u2013 Right: 2002 WRX\u00a0inner<\/h4>\n

First take apart both shafts<\/span>.<\/h2>\n

Remove the CV boot clamps:<\/h3>\n


\n\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Remove the retaining ring holding the inner joint together:<\/h3>\n


\n\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Remove\u00a0the snap ring, race, and cage from\u00a0the end of the shaft:<\/h3>\n


\n\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Disassembled the two shafts.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Assemble\u00a0the WRX shaft, the custom race, and the STI inner\u00a0joint:<\/span><\/h2>\n

Slide the cage on your existing shaft, then the new custom race, and finally the snap ring.<\/h3>\n

The grooved end of the race goes on first.<\/h3>\n

**<\/span>On some\u00a0shafts the race is a little thinner, and the shaft will have to be filed about\u00a0.040\u201d. If filed on the outside of the shaft where the snap ring goes, the shaft\u00a0will not lose any strength.**<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n


\n\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Apply 3\/4 of the bag of grease into the inner cup\/joint. Apply some of the remaining grease to\u00a0the race and cage. Insert bearings in cage – the grease will hold bearings in place.<\/h3>\n

Slide\u00a0assembled shaft\u00a0into STI inner cup\/joint.<\/h3>\n

Install retaining ring.<\/h3>\n

Apply remainder of grease into the STI boot.<\/h3>\n

Slide boot onto cup\/joint.<\/h3>\n

Crimp down boot clamps.<\/h3>\n

And now you have a custom shaft to install your R180 differential in your Subaru, using\u00a0your stock hubs:<\/h2>\n
