Default Isuzu T5 26 spline input shaft?

Today at work I did a clutch on a isuzu rodeo and when I dropped the tranny I noticed it was definitly a t5. Looking at the input shaft it has a large number of splines, definitly not a 10 spline like mustangs. It looks about the correct length of a mustang input shaft. I'm just wondering if its what companies like astro use for 26 splines or if it could just be used in a rebuild of a t5 for a mustang? Anyone know?

The Isuzu T5 is the same as the S10 T5. Some Rodeo's used the GM 3.1 v6.

Well if you could swap em, now you gotta 26splined input with the same Stock T-5 gears. I comparedmy G-Force gears and input to an M22 "rockcrusher" input and gears, they are bigger and just as straight cut. (Helical synchonized that is.) With that said... Polishing a turd doesn't make it any less of a turd.

I broke one of those T5's with a stock 2.8 in my S10. Theyre weak.

Guess you know a lot man! by the way sorry for putting this thread up from over 4 years of being dead...Hope you understand. Just an idiot who's needing help...My car is quite old and i guess creating a new thread seemed useless so i decided to put some of my queries here just to make sure i'll get a precise answer. So, it happened that I was installing the 32-spline input shaft into my NP241 for my isuzu rodeo 94. When I pulled the old shaft out I set it down to take a picture of the two before I installed the new one. I noticed that the shafts were machined differently. The new one looks as if it wasn't machined down enough to allow the bearing to sit where it needs to, it's about 3/8s off . Should I return it, see if it can be machined down or what? I'm kinda in a hurry to get this done before my busy season starts up. hope to get answers from you. Thanks anyway!
