Broke TailShaft Housing
Broke TailShaft Housing so wednesday night, i made my way to the drag strip. finally go some runs in with the new set up and went from 13.5 at 106 last yr to 12.8 at 110. no probs with the car at all that night. now for today, pull the car out of the shop, pulled the quads out to make more room to try and fig out what keeps draining my battery (that started after i installed the power kill relay). pulled the car in and seen something leaking, just fig it was a seal that i knew was going bad. jacked the car up and seen it wasnt a seal. the damn tail shaft housing crack just over half was around by where the housing bolt to the tranny and in front of the trans mount. now heres my question, where the hell can i get a new one by next wkend? Kansas City International Raceway is having there High School Drags and im hoping to run. thanks for any info
When I broke mine, I just called around to local trans shops and if a trans shop doesn't have one for sale go to a junk yard and pick one up. You will probaly break it again unless you move the tq arm off the tail shaft.
had the same thing happen to me on a dyno 2hours away from home!Looked for a used tailshaft with no luck.Finally ordered the umi cross member relocation mount an got a truck tailshaft (no t/a mount)can find those all day long.
the messed up part is i made 7 or 8 runs no prob running 12.8 @110 everytime with a 2 sec 60 ft. got home, the car sat for 3 days and no puddle. pulled it out, backed it in and all down hill from there. if i can get away with a new or used one for this coming wkend, ill just let the car sit til i get a relocate bracket
