Help!! last part of the turbo swap. Axle and driveshaft question.
Okay, just ordered my custom driveshaft.
Ordered it at 42in, with a TII yoke and and the larger 83 pinion flange. I have an 82 but they could not source the 82 flange, and the 83 has a much larger U joint in it that is about twice as strong. my questions are these. I know the pinion flange is interchangable, but I also know that there is a crush washer in there and axles are really sensitive when it comes to bearing load and such. Im planning on upgrading to a GSL axle very soon, but they are hard to come by and im just trying to get the car on the road for now. what parts do I need just to switch the 83 pinion flange to my 82 axle. is it just the crush washer and the seal or is there more involved. |
Hey, how u been?
I know that the crush washer is a MUST. Good luck with that if I get more information I'll IM you. -Ryan |
It's actually a crush tube. Make sure you get the tightening torque correct or it will compress the tube. Been there, done that....
|
cool, sound like thats the only piece I need. and maybe a new seal.
thanks, BTW, anyone have a 83 or newer pinior flange they would sell me. |
