Tranny pr0n for Jdredd
still looking into a buildable coating for the 2.93 sprockets...armoloy is a rather expensive possibility
got a good dimensional grasp of it and made a fine tuned mockup out of some scrap stainless...awww look at that cute little needle bearing...poor guy
looks like i can do it fairly simply with welded chromoly plates
ill have to cut down the OD, but im going to modify the OEM side cover bolts for the stator support, grab some more meat, though there's enough room there for some sort of washer type ring to spread the load out to the casting a hair better.
its probably not worth it as the support should fix most of the issues but it does look like an area for improvement since there's room and the oem bolts are an off the shelf size, undoubtedly for cost reasons
and for comparison here is the 80e
yep, larger 6 bolt stator support with a 4" dia ball bearing for each gear. and why yes the channel plate bolts to the center of the case...at multiple points no less...
oh dear me is that a roller bearing also supporting the end of the input shaft? why yes my dear it is....
the old girl might weight 65 lbs more...but all that fat is in all the right places, giggity
id let her touch my stub shaft anytime....
