Hey Everyone!
Long time, no see! I have had my "only used once" full floater setup sitting in storage for a long time. Recently, I sent it to my gear shop to have it given the once over. He checked it all out and it was good but for a slightly bent axle tube. We had had them cambered before and took it to a race shop to have the axles put back to spec. Here are a few photos of the setup as it sits now: (IMG:https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8836/28728241535_3d3cd6e801_m.jpg) (IMG:https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8060/28728240855_5842c0a790_m.jpg) I can get more if there is interest. Here is the setup:
The housing was approx. $900 new, the center sections start at $2000 on Mark Williams site, and the brakes were around $1000 or so, and then axles, seals, etc...all adds up. Over $5000 in it new.... I am looking at a FIRE SALE on this as it has sat for a long time and needs a home. Was looking at $2000 OBO. Hoping to sell local in Norcal so I can deliver. Thanks Let me know Randy Mackintosh rmackintosh at comcast.net This post has been edited by rmackintosh: Aug 2 2016, 08:49 PM |

I saw that the Vette recently came out of mothballs. And I've noticed that you guys play more hockey than most pros. It looks like it's going well and you're having fun. So, I think you're on the right track.
TO get the new guys up to speed, here's the build thread on the Camaro: http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/index.php?showtopic=10715 Camaro disassembly is here (crash pics are always a good reminder to use top shelf safety gear): http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/index.php?sho...14913&st=80 And the replacement Corvette: http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/index.php?showtopic=15228 I can split this out if you prefer Randy. I wasn't trying to spam up your thread. That was a seriously nice Camaro build. |

And, yes, I VERY MUCH BELIEVE in SAFETY FIRST!!! I wonder why....hehe. But I have also always tried to "do it right" with the cars I have built.... Randy |

I have a lot of threads in my head and I can usually dig them up with a little effort. |
