Paul and Georges Almost done before assembly. I do have the end shaft to
be treaded 22mmX 1.5 for the safety nut and groove one one side to lock
it . Then treated and annealed both shaft at Rockwell 60. I will try to
go at Sun&Fun this Saturday and comeback Sunday. Few photos for your
interest.

Looking real Jean. What does it weigh so far? I
won't be at Sun & Fun this year. Too much patent work. Filing world
wide.

Jean I am Pascal from France searching for a PSRU.
Question: where did you find the bell housing which seems to be die
casting made?

And where did you get all these parts? Would be very
interested to purchase a full set as you show in your photos. Since
Tracy Crook retired,

I really don’t where to find a planetary psru.

If you can help, that would be great.

I'm looking for 2.71 - 2.85 ratio.

Thanks Best regards

Pascal

Jean

No Help? Is it a secret where  you got your parts?

Regards
Pascal

The bell housing is stock Mazda. The casting on the front is a sprint
car quick change rear end.

Paul Lamar



Thank you Paul
I'll try to figure out on which trade mark car it is used and try to
locate in Europe.
Pascal


I don't think they have sprint car racing in Europe. There is a whole
industry
here in the US dedicated to small  oval tack racing on dirt and pavement.
The power is up to 800 HP and the weight is 1300 pounds or less.
There are literately 100's of small oval race tracks around the US.

It is a reflection of our disposable income as is private aviation

Also so called live rear axles are not common in cars in Europe.
They are disappearing in the US as well and being replaced
by front drive independent suspension.

Paul Lamar



Yes, and some rear wheel drive independent suspension vehicles like the
Chevy Camaro and the Ford Mustang.  It's about time Ford moved into the
21st century only 15 years behind the time.
