And what are you going to use them for since there are modern alternatives.

Four pairs are needed and as my zx front hubs are on my zxs I need to rebuild my zx and have had enough of snapping my kingpins in my alloy knuckle arms. So will be using stainless steel screws instead.

Somethings apeared in the post and looking good. Im hopefully getting the cad drawing soon for the zx gearbox and will make one plus i am hoping to get a tub chassis made as well. If all goes to plan within the next two weeks.

Rear out drives are zx and may be reflecting the light from the flash. If blue very nice.

If it works why change it. Anyway I have this weekend rebuilt my ZX-S front end with the ZX-5 steering knuckle arms and are a better design so may resolve a few problems. Iso you may find these simpler as no spacers are needed under the knuckle arm, only one is needed ontop so makes it a lot less problematic if you loose the king pin.

Now next job is to get onto the diffs. I have a set of the original ZXR diffs but have never used them since day one so any ideas how to keep the damn thing from coming loose? Do you thread lock the screw or is there another solution? My excuse is I only used gear diffs then upgraded to pure ten diffs.

Threadlock on the screw is the way to go x

Does anyone recognize this (tiny!) picture of the front knuckle and carrier? I've got it saved as ZX-5 front knuckles and hubs but I can't seem to find anything like them online anywhere. They're very similar looking to the XX4 style knuckles and hubs. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

in on road, ball diffs seem to already outlived its shelf life. virtuallty every on road car now uses oil filled gear diffs or has an option for them. Everyone complains if you use a 4.5R motor or hotter, the diff practically loosen. loosening of the diff by itself is a safety feature, becuase the balls cannot take the heat generated anymore. you can put threadlock on the other end of the outdrive, this will make sure the diff wont loosen up, but you will most probably melt the diff pulley. beleive me, something will probably give. The only way i see is to design an oil filled gear diff for the lazer, i know plastic tooling isnt cheap, but thats the only choice if we still want to drive this car. I only use a 10.5 so i never face any problem. The other option is to machine diff rings with heatsink built in them, it could work to dissipate the heat and will not require any molding investment.
