after a couple of months of planning and parts collecting i have finally started my transzilla build. it will using a normal 914 side shift trans, with a few up grades, i will be dialing in the ring and pinion back to spec with this build also.
i laid all the parts out on my assembly table to give you guys an idea of all the parts installed. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1362881754.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1362881754.2.jpg) |

the rest of the pinion shaft is just like assembling puzzle. when done it should look like this.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1362890577.1.jpg) and this is the main shaft. no special math for this shaft. just assembling the puzzle. an interesting note about the 901 gearbox is the second gear fixed gear is actually part of the main shaft so you cant really change the ratio for second gear. i take that back. the are a couple of ways to change its ratio. you can use a 904 main shaft. which has a removable second gear. but its big bucks, if you can even find one. or the second gear can be machined off and the new gear can be welded on. here is the completed main shaft. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1362890578.2.jpg) here is my professionally calibrated torque wrench. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) its for the big nut that holds the whole shmeer together. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i722.photobucket.com-12492-1362890579.3.jpg) then the washer gets peened over to keep the nut from loosening up.
