Draker Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Kool beans, let me know when you want to get together for tranny diagnosis....Mike has a few he wants to check too....I was pondering the idea of going to his shop maybe so all 3 of us can do to it, any thoughts? I'm fine with going where ever, just as long as we have the tools needed to get it done. 1 Quote Link to comment

Lockleaf Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I would be interested in that ST steering wheel, should you decide to part with it. Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I would be interested in that ST steering wheel, should you decide to part with it. I'm undecided. I do have another 510 also so it could go in that. Quote Link to comment

KoHeartsGPA Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Wheel center cap prototype: Please please do it, I'll buy a set :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 i could use some of those, just a little bit bigger I am thinking that will be the case for a lot of people. I needed some for a while. I have the flat ones as seen in the picture, but they don't fit on the front because of the strut nut cap. Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 Please please do it, I'll buy a set :thumbup: I have no idea how these would hold up over time. I'll test them out for a bit. They need finished out also to remove tooling marks. I see a lot of potential for issues.. but we'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment

Anything is possible! I mean.. if they hold up worth a shit. I'll probably start printing some rubber gaskets here soon. Doing a bit of research on that as time allows. 2 Quote Link to comment

Doing a bit of research on that as time allows. I just realized I don't even have the original hub covers for the rims. Will have to look for them. And I've been wanting to get a 3d printer, vinyl cutter is cheaper though, will have to save anything I earn off of it for the 3d printer though Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 Well the test fit didn't go quite as planned. It fit, just didn't quite lock into place like I was hoping. Also, they are too tall for the dish of this wheel. Going to make adjustments in a little bit and print again. 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 Just wrapped up the new shorter design. We'll see how it prints.. 1 Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted March 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 Still need to work the piece a bit more to get the badge to sit lower in the part. Little sanding and it should work great. 3 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted March 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Well, they fit perfect. I'm happy with the look. Now.. how do they hold up over time.. I guess we'll see. 5 Quote Link to comment

Draker Posted March 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Finished wiring the IR alternator. I believe this to be a Saturn alternator.. got it with the motor and cleaned it up. 2 Quote Link to comment
