Draker Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Ouch, that sucks! Did you do anything to get primer inbetween the panels? I couldn't think of a way. I tried to spray in the holes where possible.. but obviously bare metal anywhere is no good. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 I'm waiting on sand paper so no filler applied today. I got to work trying to recover my 720 steering wheel. It was blue previously. So far.. so good. No pics yet. Still a work in progress. Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Frame wax for the in between area? No idea if that is decent idea. http://www.eastwood.com/internal-frame-coating-w-spray-nozzle.html Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 I couldn't think of a way. I tried to spray in the holes where possible.. but obviously bare metal anywhere is no good. Any ideas? Tape off the holes & seams, "fill" with primer (or POR15, etc) and spin it around on a giant gimbal? Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 I'll ask the folks that dipped it what they do. I think the correct way would be a dip in a primer bath. Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Thought I have a line on a cheap 3.9 Subaru r160 clsd. Left work and booked it over there.... non-lsd. It was mis-ID'd by the yard. Quote Link to comment

scooter stuff Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Keep me posted please! I will PM you when i get them. 1 is a CLSD, gears are bad, can easily be swapped into another diff with the gears of your choice. 2 are VLSD's one is a 4:44, i'm not sure on the other. I also have 510 stub axles that are machined to run in a VLSD 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Depending on the price I might in interested in the broken one. The one I was looking at today was dirt cheap. But was too good to be true. Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 I've got a line on a few known good clsd's but my wallet says no. Quote Link to comment

I would stil get it if it's really cheap, those are hard to come by. You can easily swap in an LSD. 1 Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted June 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 $300-350 maybe $50 to ship for a 3.7. Quote Link to comment

scooter stuff Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 The 510 diff is a R160 3.9? What is different in the subie unit? The ring gear bolt size?The diff's are almost identical. The difference is Datsun shafts are bolted in, Subuaru are held in with a snap ring. To use The 510 shafts in a VLSD the shoulder below the splines needs to be turned down and a groove added for the snap ring. Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 I've been holding off on the Nardi. For now, I'm just going to re-wrap my ST wheel. 2 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted June 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 faux leather, if this works out.. maybe someday I'll wrap in real leather. I don't think this faux leather will hold up over time, but it matches the seats. 1 Quote Link to comment
