3/16" is your measurement:)
Hi again,
I just thought I would post up the conclusion to all the dramas I had with the MaxiDrive.
I got both the flange and ring gear machined down by 2mm. All fitted together beautifully :). I installed it into the front yesterday and tried it out today. My comments are, yep I can definitely get up much crazier stuff now :D and I NEED POWER STEERING WHEN IT IS ENGAGED!!! My arms are so sore!
Hi again everyone.
Just need an opinion on one thing relating to the maxidrive. It is housed in a series 2A housing which on a 2A has a drive shaft with a universal joint on either end (single cardac).
I have fitted this to my stage one forgetting that the stage one has three universals in the drive shaft (double cardac), so the diff input shaft should actually the same angle as the drive shaft. So i'm now getting some pretty wicked vibration because of the incorrect angles.
What I want to ask is:
Should I shim the diff housing to bring the input shaft from horizontal to match the angle of the drive shaft or fit a RR front drive shaft which I've bought for $30 (See Diagram)?

Thanks all
If you shim it, you'll lose castor and it'll drive like poo;)
I have a single uni shaft on the front of my Stage 1 without any problems
Just replace the uni's with new ones on the new shaft and keep an eye on it.
Cheers
Dave.
Castor angles are wrong as they are at the moment... That's why the steering is SOOO heavy... The housing had slotted holes for the swivel balls. Gonna have to readjust that.Quote:
