omg!!! don`t do that!!!! talk about unsafe!!! that`s about the most moronic thing I`ve seen! :slapass:

apart of me wants to rip it right off and throw it in the garbage, but I have to say it is really nice to be able to ride with my hat on plus not eating bugs is great.
I`m thinking after the...

Sold my last bike to bank roll my self-employment over 15yrs ago and now my self-employment is paying me back. :p
1997 HD Dyna Glide Convertible. Lots of chrome and extras, stage 1 kit. So far I`ve...

Yes I did, but I had to tighten the pinion nut to extremes to get the play out of the bearings. I don`t have a dial indicator. :(
I adjusted to just the point I had a little play between the pinion...

...meaning if your going to put a ton of miles on then get the accord as the gas mileage will be much better.

I ended up going with the original 3:55 gears and it put my speedo back to reading the right speed again. It`s got lots more legs between the gears now too, don`t really know why they dropped it to...

I`ve worked on a few, they feel like your driving in a coffin. :eek:

You can only do it launching from a dead stop, it`s not something you can do while your driving down the road already.

How difficult?? That`s a relative term! For me it`s a piece of cake, but I have no idea of your mechanical ability. You can buy the engine rebuild kit with the new pistons and jugs, push rod tubes...

Depends on the intake manifold it uses and what style engine it works on (single or dual ports heads). If it has the manifold and it`s the same head style, it may very well work. :)

*edit*
Single...

I`v run them off-road taking jumps and everything with no problems. Like I said, if it get`s damaged just popping a little wheelie, then it was rusted out or damaged to begin with, in which case...

I`ve run many beatles, if you use an older tranny and a newer dual port 1600cc motor it is possable to get a wheelie, I`ve done it as well with a `64 convertable and a BAJA convertion unit too. You...

So I`m still confused, are you talking the rear axle gear ratio?? Or transmission 4th gear finial ratio??

Unless the cars a piece of junk already I wouldn`t even consider it, cause if it`s not it soon will be after you roll it over! :slapass: :p:

Possably I`m wrong then, I assumed he was talking tranny when he said 'gearbox'.

No, you can`t really. 4th gear connects the input shaft with the output shaft turning them both together 1:1. You`d have to rearrange all the gears and use your overdrive gear in the 3rd gear place,...

Most all trannys, with the exception of overdrive trannys have a 1:1 finial ratio. I`d have to go with a Richmond 6-speed overdrive tranny like what I linked in the first post to acheave the gear...

Actually the 10 bolt posi unit in the older cars (pre `65) is pretty stout. The 10 bolts in the intermediates into the early `70s was alright too, but I had an `82 Firebird I put fuel injection 454...

The only things they have in common is they are both rear axles assemblies and they both use 10 bolts to hold the cover on, other then that, it`s not the same at all. Different size carriers,...

The planes and heli would be worth buying, but the trucks are beat bad and in need of repair and $$. If they were worth any real money I would have sold them when I e-bayed everything else years ago.

`65 was the first year for the 12 bolt posi, however, this car was built in 12/`64 so it still has the 10 bolt, as well as the battery on the wrong side too. It has a 4-speed fully synced tranny.

I dunno...The vehicles are beat bad, the planes are good, the Piper has never been off the ground and is an older balsa wood unit, the Heli took a light hit when the rotor blade hit the tail boom, so...

I`ve got two planes, one a trainer and one an older piper cub, a kalt barron 30 heli, a couple 1/8 scale ofna off road units, and a couple 1/10 scale stuff, all nitro. Haven`t touched them in years.

I`ve had many many RC cars and have been through many brands. Ellectrics are weak! For nitro power this 1/8 scale off road unit is about the most rugged, fastest, well balanced unit you can get. You...
