Now you guys see why I sold all of my tranny to transfer case trucks, that was the shaft that always seem to break. Let's see, I had the D90, my orange TTC Brute, my EB and Big Oly that all ran them. Only on thw EB was I able to get a straight line to the transfer case life the TF2 is.

I believe I broke at least one shaft on each and finally converted Big Oly and the Brute. They were trouble free then. Of course I was running a 7T or a 10 T puller in those 2 beasts.

I'm not having any problems. Just talking about it. I think i'm going to make some of those shmwarpig dealies. They will be much shorter I think.

[neillarson]

They do work well, Brian had one and I made one for the EB. Of course it will much easier for you to put the shoulder in the tube and drill it out.

[badhoopty]

other than the ujoints getting wore out on my modded punisher shaft i haven't had any issues. then again i dont have much of an angle going to the tcase from the trans.

i probably could have left the punisher in there for another season but i figure why not get something better since i know sooner or later its gonna give the ghost.

[JHTreyIII]

Maybe, since tomorrow night isn't a school night, we should drinks some cold beers after the comp. Wha-da-ya-say?

[Die-Laughing]

I'm cool with that. BYOB?

I'm going to home depot to look for a wagon.. I don't want to carry anything in that heat! Haha

I run them with a pro 4 with no problems. It is the drive line angle that will kill the system.

You need to be as straight as possible to have you best chance. Warpig make a new stronger one than what Jason has posted.

It really is the only way to run a transfer-case with true success with no slop.

I really feel that transfer case is not work it or the 4 points.

p.s I have one unused. It is 1.625 eye to eye. if anyone want it. pm me. I will sell it for what I paid

[sally1800]

Guys I just posted this shaft for sale. If you want it let me know soon.

[Die-Laughing]

I'm not even sure how long mine needs to be yet but, I'm sure the chances are slim that what you have just happens to be the size I need. I'll come up with something when the time comes. Thanks.

Yeah or we can just stop and get some like we did last time. Probably should drink at the park. Zero isn't far, my house is prob 20 minutes from Roselle but we can go there or we can find a bar to get a beer and some food. Anyone else interested? It would be better if it wasn't just Rick and me...pretty sure that's called a man date.

seems like an easy thing to make if you have the right stuff.

i like transfer cases. its a little more work to fit and more parts to maintain, but i dig the scale factor.

i wonder if having the little driveshaft joints out of phase has the same effects as they do sometimes in 1:1's? i always try to keep my joints inline with each other as much as i can. if you had a couple driveshaft joints fighting against each other with no slip between them something would have to give.

Oh yeah, it definitely does. The steeper angles male it worse.

A frined of mine is hosting a killer bbq tomorrow in Logan Square after the comp... all gormet food, beer and a ton of people, if you'd like to come.

[johnnyh66]

btw, this afternoon I managed to solder up a seriers conector (2 x male Deans and 1 female Traxxas), a Deans lipo charger plug (male) and permanetly soldered a BEC to a BR-XL

I got the hang of it now... more heat, flux and solder!

Unfortunately my house is out; I have a friend's party for his daughter's HS graduation to go to this evening. Otherwise, even as sorta tipsy as I am still from yesterday, would be up for it.

See you all in a few.

Too bad Sato, that crazy bastard, didn't make his last gap pass.. that would have been the bomb, literally!
