Hi Lee.
Back at work now so the Torana's been having a rest. I'm looking for another LH banjo diff housing to build up a new diff with the correct Torana track width, then i'm looking at fitting some new wheels. I'm thinking of a set of Welds or similar to what i've got on the silver SLR. I drove the Torana into work on monday & it got a little hot in traffic on the way home, i think it needs a fan shroud to help keep it cool at low speeds. The rubber steering coupling has play in it so it's like play school driving on the freeway so i'm going to try & fix that before i take it on another long drive, but i love driving the car so hopefully all these little probs will be fixed soon. How's your project coming along, i check the forum from time to time but i haven't seen any updates yet.
no updates as yet Matt
as i have done a couple of love jobs as well as got lumbered with a heap of work at my daughters pre-school 2 weeks before they are due to go back so i have not been getting in till 9:30ish most nights which has put me behind on the the last stage of the build on the entertaining area im building, i have all the timbers painted up ready to close the 2 ends in then just have to make up 2 arched gates, get a quote on and outdoor kitchen bench and im calling it quits for a while on the house reno's cause its killing me walking past the Torana almost every day and not being able to do so much as pick up a hammer to do some tin tapping on it
anyways about the banjo diff im not sure what mine is but your more than welcome to it but i dont know if it will be any good to you as im not real sure if the diff shop will use the original trailing arm mounts of it to put on the LSD when i get it shortened to suit the LX ??? i know they will need it to match and the LSD both at the same time to make sure they get everything in the right place so i can just bolt it straight in.. but likie i said its yours if you like.. its a bit of a bummer that your LH is getting warm in traffic but by the sounds of it its only a minor problem for now and theres nothing worse than a sh*t load of play in the steering while driving and wondered about the extractors being so close ( like heath was saying ) and cooking the rubber steering coupling something i will find out for my self down the track i guess lol. in my project thread there are some pic's of the tunnel mod i did but was 100% happy with it so i unpicked redo it ( LX UNDER CONSTUCTION )
will catch up soon for a chat
