Pinion Snubber.

Post by Scooby »

Here we go rain forces play !!!
My first attempt at making a pinion snubber. As pic show because my car is not stock so ive had to make a few adjustments.

The inner steel sleeve can be moved up or down or any other adj can be taken up by moving the thread up or down. It will adjust to within an 1/4 of an inch from the floor or an inch or so the other way, Oh thanks to Baccman for supplying the snubber.
If anybodies interested, I do have a spare stock snubber.

Crickey! Thats a tall one. :shock:

I had to shorten mine.

Keep that spare snubber rubber thing for the one time you drive all the way home after forgetting to lower it after racing. :roll:

Thanks for advice.

The snubber is fully extended for now (agree it is tall) but so is the distance between axle and car. And It will be bolted up tight.
Thanks for advice lads.
Adam you taking the p.....s :lol:

Just jealous of the amount of penetration on the welding.

You got any low flying gulls down your neck of the woods?

Dude! Word on the street was that all the race gear was coming off that pretty barge! What's with the pinion snubber if you've gone all gay with the gears? :shock:
