my D22 getting SAS

[joshy]

joshy = athlete , me = pretender. If it looks a little steep/rough i'm the first to look for an easier way lol. I'd probally cry if i broke something.

Ah i wouldnt say athlete more like i like a challenge. I guess ive just goten use to breaking them now.

Bugger!
How many have you tallied up now?

Ah itd have to be atleast 10...

how to break a cv


how to not break a cv. Never looks as steep/gnarly on video


some bush mechanics

 

[Kickars2]

wow that cv went quick and easy,
but i give you points cause it sounded good lol

 

[joshy]

yeah that one had survived two or three breaking on the other side, and ill usualy keep driving with just the one cv working so id say it was just a build up of stress. 2nd one went with a heap of revs haha

 

[glenstr]

how hard was it to change the CV on the track?
and what did the low gears cost? she crawls so slow.

 

[joshy]

ah wasnt too hard...just more awkward then normal, dirt and gravel everywhere, shock bolt wasnt playing nice. i wouldnt do it if it was ur 1st one....
gears cost 1400 i think. theyll be up for sale soon.

 

[Kickars2]

hmmmm, very interesting.

 

[Oudaere]

Hey Josh, you need these for the front wheels, considering your history with CV's.

Hahah i think the 3 hand grenade stickers on the car will do me for now

 

[joshy]

Not long now!
Picked up the gearbox today(fingers crossed the bellhousings match up) and steering box. got both cheaper then i had planned on.

Also bought a 250amp mig welder, drill press and 20t floor press. Hopefully order bender and notcher tomorrow off opw. Cant wait to start cutting this thing up.

Also got some more cvs today. last pair i buy. At least the price went down each time. $160 now. and i have some proto types to try out that use patrol/landcruiser cvs. If i cant break them then no1 else should be able to.

 

[D22 King]

yeh that thing is sweet. When do u get ur SAS in it? how long and how much it cost, thinkin about getting it done

 

[joshy]

well im not just doing a sas so cant really give you an accurate cost. but if you got someone else to do it for you ur prob lookin at 5grand plus parts...for just the front diff swaped, not the gearbox/transfer and rear diff.

 

[D22 King]

about 10 grand? tell me if it is worth it when u finished, or is just the front air locker worth it? gettin front and back diffs locked booked in with ARB in Perth to have it done in 2 months, and some muddies. 35s haha

 

[joshy]

depends what you wana drive man. Im only doing it cos i keep breaking shit driving the tracks i want to drive. Im going to see if i can make the nav transfer case chain stronger before i onsell it. Assume ur getting an auto front locker?

ring a 4x4 engineering place if you want a quote, hard to tell you cos im doing it all myself.

 

[joshy]

bought some new gear

got a mig welder to, was an expensive day.

 

[Laith]

I got a drill press but am jealous about your hydrolic press. Have been wanting one for a while in my workshop.

A mig is another thing I'd like.

There will be no stopping you Josh.

 

[Trotter D22]

looks great man i like it. what did they sting ya for exhaust. how much difference did it make.

 

[Dave]

Ahhhh, a GU gearbox and transfer arent they fun to pick up not.

Heavy pricks they are.

What else are waiting on Josh ?

I have a GU manual here if you want a copy. Got a Navara one to but that probably wont help as there wont be much Navara parts left in this thing.
