Re: Back into the big leagues: Project FRC

It's been slow going but making progress.

Flywheel was in on Monday with long tubes still in place.

Quite a pain to get it past the long tubes, yes they are unbolted but it is just that tight in there.
Clutch was installed next.
First disc installed:

Using the 2nd disc to ensure everything aligns on torque tube


Twin disc in and torqued:


And now the current state. Waiting on some heim rods to be welded up for my custom transmission/differential brace as well as my anti-wheel hop traction setup:


Otherwise drivetrain is ready to go back home. I need to install torque tube + transmission + differential in one pass, subframe in a 2nd pass:


Hope to have the fabrication parts done tonight and maybe even the drivetrain in and installed.
