  • Well, things are evolving again..  

  • Yeah. I am building it to drive to the extreme. I have been doing extreme sports my whole life. There is one thing I learned. Wear the proper gear for the job, and you are able to do it again.

I sat around the other night with sandpaper(300 grit-ish, and 1000 grit) and polished the inside leading edges of the twin sticks to get them to move more fluidly next to each other.Then hit them with a dremel and some rouge..

Thats about it, I think I have made a deal on My Subie EJ d/r, so I will have the scrilla to throw at this thing again soon.

I looked just slightly earlier than you posted.It is literally from 2.5 5 speeds. from like 97 to whenever that generation ends.

Got athe proper Slave, and mounted it up the trans to make sure it fit.

Then checked the fitting to the Toyota master cylinder..

DOH....evidently there is one set of crossmembers from 79-82, and 83-85.Nice.

Well,I guess I will be needing to build a crossmember..DOH!:banghead:

cheers

  • Author
I have one from a 80 or 81 if that helps

It would help if you were down the road.But you're not :)

 

I am gonna pick up a DIY t-case plate from a new buddy down here.Should be able to make something happen from that.

 

cheers

My buddy & I cut his cross member in pieces to build a custom mount for his Chevy motor & trans. We used the sides, but welded in a plate for a new bottom.

 

Im sure you could do it in an hour... cut each end off... bolt them to the frame. Tack replacement plate in place... remove and finish.

I have a buddy down the road with a CNC plasma table.He is going to be cutting me a mount like the Front Range Offroad DIY mount.I will be using that once I get it this week.

 

I should have the rest of my axle rebuild stuff by Friday,including my hub gears.

Then I will be putting that stuff together.

I am looking at trading the tires I have due to them being radials.....

But with my twin stick almost done,I have alot of irons in the fire right now.

Cheers

So, I needed to add accoutrement for shock mounting in the front.

IMG_5751_zps962b9a44.jpg

Then needed to start the shockmounts

IMG_5753_zps28ea7615.jpg

Then I started the other side, and forgot to seat the pin on the follower:,,,,
