Cool info. Axis probably has the ability to make this work on quite a few more transmissions. Another option for sm465s or any of the gm auto transmissions would be great.
Here’s some pictures of a 38mm case that Valley hybrids did. Much nicer than my case, but I don’t have access to a mill.
I used a combination of a flap disc on an angle grinder and a 36grit Roloc disc on a 90* die grinder
Bhsdriller highlighted them all.
The two on the left are for the Idler gear, which I haven’t seen anyone talking about. I didn’t do as nearly a nice job on those as I did for low range gear.
Finished up work early and spent another hour on the case half. I am done with clearencing and did not break through the case!
Waiting on my idler bearings spacer. And I’ll be ready for final assembly!
going to see what I can digup to try and measure the rear case half where I clearanced it...
Made some decent progress on my lunch break today. Cluster gear is all together with new bearings. All that’s left is Finishing the case.
I am VERY close to being done with the case and I haven’t broke through...yet. There’s still time. Once I think I’m done, I do a full assembly with the...
Also, called my local toyota dealer, ordered a new spacer for the idler bearings. The kit from AA includes bearings but no spacer. PN 90560-38003. Should have it early next week.
Well, I reached out to Sumo Gear this morning and this was their response. So we’ll see. Maybe Kurt or Georg will chime in. Otherwise I’ll give one of them a call tomorrow.
“Thank you for the answers and picture. After reviewing the photo your concerns are completely correct - the washer that...
I’m pretty confident that I will need 38mm thrust washers. In your thread 34mm vs 38mm Kurt talks about their Japanese stepped idler shaft and specifically states it uses 38mm thrust washers
With a stepped pin the clearances will a fixed measurement, but with a regular style, they will be variable.
You don’t think it may add too much clearance and not allow the case halves to fully bolt together? Also causing excessive play in the idler gears?
