It's been a while but Leeloo is getting closer to getting back on her feet. Basically what started as a tranny rebuild for a broken R&P is now getting closer to the end after getting in there to do a "few things". DWD set in and since I thought "while I was in there"....you get the idea... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
First off was getting the 901 fixed. After taking it apart it was found that the rear mainshaft bearing obliterated itself and ended up tilting the mainshaft under load. It proceeded to wipe out the R&P and 3 gears. Not a pretty sight. After a rebuild with 3 new gears, new synchros, seals and the installation of a Wavetrac TBD, she is ready rock! All buttoned up and under her own power now. Bill P. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i126.photobucket.com-287-1407096935.1.jpg) |

Next up I wanted to tie the suspension points together and have a safety cage that would be PCA/SCCA/NASA legal, so I took her to Tony at TC Design and had him install a very nice cage. The fab work came out great and I had him push the door bars out a tad a la a cup car. The cabin feels very roomie, bigger than my Spec Boxster. I am very pleased with the result.
