I have a question, i recently picked up a TII diff. I would like to also buy a 4.33 gears, can I install it with out doing any fabrication to the diff?or would it all just fall in place?..

 

ok once you got that done let me know as well as correct diemnsions for the new axles and all.



im going to have strange build the axles and driveshaft if they aren't too busy and they're really really close to me.



that nitrous driveshaft sounds like what i'd need but like i stated before im moving a hell've a lot of power through the car but also with VERY little weight (around 2500 lbs)

 

Good luck. Strange was one of the companies I contacted to try to get the axles made. Mark Williams was another. Neither was interested.

 

For anyone interested, a group buy on the '03+ Cobra cradle has been started on the other forum...

Just an update... we've already got five in the group buy, so the price is already down $50 for everyone. If you're interested, post in the thread or send me an e-mail at jimlab@earthlink.net and I'll add your name to the list.



Payments will be collected up front when the GB closes, and turnaround should be fairly quick on the fabrication end. Several have asked about powder coating, so I'll be looking into that as well at additional cost if anyone is interested.



Thanks!

 

i have a spare subframe from a 93 i could send you. contact me if you want to use it.

 

ok i feel stupid here jim.. im reading your post on the other forum.. baiscally i need to find the entire diff from an 03 cobra, as well as entire axles from thew cobra, just so i can have them modified for 600 something, plus the cradle youre making, driveshaft comes later.



correct?

 

Yep. The new 300M axle centershafts and new CV boots from The Driveshaft Shop replace your existing axle centershafts and inner CV boots. You supply an '03+ Cobra differential and inner CV joints (from a pair of Cobra axles). Put the axles together and bolt the differential in with the new differential cradle, and you're good to go, short of modifying the driveline and providing a transmission brace of some type.

 

Jim, since http://www.driveshaftshop.com already makes the heavy duty 03 Cobra axles, and the FD axles as well, wouldn't it be easier just to have them create the axle you need, rather than have to re-weld one of the axles? Using the Cobra's inner CV and the FD's outer CV and having the shaft cut to length, I think this might be an easier alternative since you already have all the measurements...

 

Gee, now why didn't I think of that...



The welded axle was for length measurements only. The axle centershafts made by the Driveshaft Shop will be completely new axles with FD outer and Cobra inner splines. The reason I chose the Driveshaft Shop was precisely because they build both FD and Cobra axles already. Great minds think alike?
