    Re: Corse I CV joints

    So does the Quaife from Autolusso fit a 16v 12v gearbox (i hope thats what it is, the box came with all the bits when I bought it all.)
    It was supposed to be a new box, and was painted bright clean red.
    I put a new clutch cover and plate on the engine when I fitted it.


    If am going to pull the engine, perhaps now is the time to get the rear damper mounting plates made correctly for a Corse I. Any body have the dimensions, or know where I could get some plates made up, if I can make up some templates?


    Oh well, engine out and I can tidy up the rubber grommit thing round the gearshaft rod whilst I am at it. Anyone got any good product details for this.

    The Quaife ATB Differential fits the 12v box. I've got one assembled here for the new build that's stalled...

    Junk the linkage and buy a cable shift.

    I asked Craig that, and he told me to stay with rod.

    Right
    Rear clam off. Both driveshafts off. Both calipers off. Exhaust off.
    Left wheel bearing definitely gone. Rumbles and no spin. Right is quiet and quick flick it will turn nearly 360 deg on its own.
    When taking right caliper off, this fell out from somwhere?
    It is about 12mm x 6mm x 2mm , is rubber backed, stamped 5 on front and seems to show "contact" wear. Any ideas?

    I think I will try to keep engine in, change wheel bearings and the right side CVs. (lefts done last week)
    I will see if I can do diff to LSD in situ, and ask Craig about fitting cable shift.

    Guy, is that a hint you might want to sell it?

    Not at the moment but it is in the way of me working on the first car which is showing a real reluctance to run properly. Must update that thread...
