This is what i have got

kaszal 01-06-2011 06:53 AM

That's an excellent diff. Will you use in it your Cougar? Where's the pulley?

I've fitted myself a WASP front alloy transmission housing. Nice..

And a rear Alloy housing (not pictured)

Then just thought I'd chuck up a pic of the front shock tower mod. The cut needs a little tidying for aesthetics, but the principle is there (as promised Kaszal)

:thumbsup:

Looking good mate
How's the slipper plan going?
Just bought another Cat :) a xls this time, needs lot's of work

Dazzler 12-07-2011 10:00 PM

Yes, I thought you had brought one.. Cheap I believe!

The slipper plan, well the details are all down on a post it note.. (I'll call that progress!)

I've had a few set backs with some of the simplest things I've done - supplier issues, so lost a bit of momentum. But I've got plenty of time to get it right.

And I'm still on the lookout for a Parma shell.. Anybody got one??

gainsy 12-07-2011 10:12 PM

Yeah £20 :)
Needs a new shell/undertray/wing/wing mount etc etc
Just stripped it down, needs a very good clean up but the belts/pulleys all look ok & have managed to get all the parts i needed for it in a trade for a set of the wheels :) just need a male driveshaft end
Will stick some before after shots up when it's looking better & had some fibre lyte added to it

Hi Gainsy

Is this the driveshaft part you need

If so will stick it in the envelope for you

Cheers

John

gainsy 12-07-2011 10:56 PM

Thank you very much

:thumbsup: Thanks, could you explain for us the advantages of this mod?

Sweet car mate....very nicely done!

kaszal 23-07-2011 06:09 PM

Hey Dazzler, I've done something to my car that I think you'll recognise...

http://www.oople.com/forums/showpost...&postcount=174

You likey?

Dazzler 23-07-2011 07:18 PM

Very tidy, didn't expect anything else to be honest..! have seen it done like that before, but not sure if the shocks will fit in both positions.. have you tried?

kaszal 23-07-2011 07:26 PM

Thanks. You gave me the idea!

I havn't tried both ways but I didn't want to cut the main uprights. If I want to use the inner holes I can just put the old spacer back.

I'm hoping it will go over the bumps slightly better. We'll see at Stotfold tomorrow!
