I know theres tons of info on here, but I have searched and searched and haven't found if you use your stock axles or ea82 axles on the 5spd swap? Another thing im prettey sure about is I can use the ea81 flywheel with the ea82 clutch but I don't know which throwout bearing.

You use the EA81 axles. That stays the same. And you can use the same throwout bearing. I'm pretty sure they are the same between the two anyway

Unless you have a FT4WD 5sp you use the EA81 shafts.

 

Using the 225mm EA81 flywheel with EA81 pressure plate, EA82 friction plate and EA82 throwout bearing you need to space the starter 4 to 6mm out so it clears the flywheel after started.

You want to use the throwout bearing that matches the gearbox.
