    Welded Diff.?

    go talk to any expert and ask them if a weld diff is safe at high speeds. its not a matter of skill when your differential does differ the speed between each wheel. :3d_frown: if you have ever driven anything that has the same characteristics you would know. for example a racing quad like a...

    Welded Diff.?

    i wouldn't. you won't be able to do ANY high speed driving. trust me. you don't want to hit a corner at 100+mph and have the both back tires tracking the at the same speed. it will break loose on you soooooooooooooo quick. YOU WILL DIE! if money is tight then buy some 75 cent shims and...

    ^its more of a matter of your knowlegde than difficulty. if you understand what your doing and how things should look and work in there than yes. its easy. but if its your first time i suggest tearing into a scrap tranny so you can learn how things come appart and go together. i have been in...

    so i put in my rebuilt tranny yesterday and wanted to go for a drive to test it out. AND IT SHIFTS GREAT!!!!!!!!!:biglaugh: also thats just the first hundred miles. i'm sure it will be even more smooth after the redline and the syncros breakin.

    r154 noise = rebuild?

    the reverse idler shaft has no bearing. what most likely causing the play is the bearing retainer on the intermediate plate that holds that shaft in place and should hold it in there tight. but that shit gets old, loose, and weak. make sure you get the mc retainer. that is something you don't...

    r154 noise = rebuild?

    yeah it could be something else. wooga wooga doesn't really tell much as to whats wrong. to inspect a bearing you see how smooth it spins, if the inner and outer race are loose or can "wiggle", damaged cage, discoloration on the needle roller ones, or if like mine it will be plain FUCKED UP...

    r154 noise = rebuild?

    to answer your question you can use a bearing puller to get it off but you have to use a press to get it on. any shop should do it for free or dam near it. but the thing is it can be something else. when in neutral every thing is spinning but the hubs on the op shaft. sooooooo that means there...

    is this Fucked (pics inside)

    as long as none of the gears got chipped you could just buy a new shift fork and what ever syncro you hand problems shifting with and slap it together. should be able to do it for about $100 through champion. or you could just get the fork that way you don't have to press anything. that you...

    nash the last one was hella funny. jumping a civic. LOL. and 88 this is the only video i have. with both of us the car was near 4000lbs. so yeah the extra 300lbs shifting around didn't help the handling and acceleration at all. i was thinking of tieing my camera to the passenger head...

    R154 Spins too tough, no spin with case.

    i'm sure i can help you figure it out but what you saying doen't make much sence. when you say you assembled 1st-4th that right there doesn't make sense. as the op shaft has 3rd, 2nd, 1st, then 5th at the end. that is what would be on the op shaft when its assembled. 4th has no gear. all your...

    cool. now i get what you were saying. i just don't feel i should have to defend that my diff works or not. i mean if you saw my car there in person you could see for yourself that there is no way its blown. like i said my dads 240sx has traction problems with the open diff. because once the...

    ive got the illumina 2's with eibachs. and shaeff i got my dads 240sx running good and no matter what you do it only spins one tire. there is no comparison between a open diff and a lsd.

    nah. by the looks of my tires they seem to have been wearing pretty even after the event being that they are dam near blad. lol. and just by the way the rear end of my car kicks out that can't happen with a blown/practically open diff. plus if it was really blown during any straight i would have...
