There you go looks like a few sponsors sell them as well.. :surrenderwave:

For those who asked the two people in WA whom I taught and now rebuild the ZF are EFT and MTE

Hopefully they all look after members with a good price.

Ive been happy with the price provided by MTE on the rebuilds.

Had a customers box done by them not that long ago and we have been very happy with the results.

My ZF is next on there list.

Any chance F6_Tornado you might wanna provide some of that education to someone in QLD?

I was up in Cairns a month back..... Sure if I'm over that way or they are over this way I'm always happy to teach someone.

Actually for the price some of these guys charge I could put some machined parts and new parts in my Bag fly over & stay at an expensive Hotel, fix the ZF and fly home and still make a $1000.00 profit :surrenderwave::yes-sir:

LOL!!

As long as you let me help you spend that $1000 on a night on the town with you, im all for it. Save your pennies on the accomodation, you can stay at the Hiro Hilton.

I could do that but I’d like to at least see tradesman doing the job and not just anyone as it can turn Pear shape pretty quickly!!! Like the old Saying…” A little bit of Knowledge can be Very Dangerous”

However like I have mentioned many times the input shaft has several different heat treatments over the years to improve its ductile strength..

Another words, to be able to handle the stress without Deformation, fatigue or fracture. .

Given enough power and sticky tires it will still fracture.

E pack which is first used in 4th Gear is too small and takes a lot or torque and as such needs to be increased.

Park D

Rev B & D

Nu D

1st A & D

2nd A & C

3rd A & B

4th A & E

5th B & E

6th E & C

B is another that takes a Beating in third and needs to be beefed up.

A, D & C wear but not an issue but worth tiding up whilst in there.

Keep in mind the clutch capacity is measured in force over area and as such if you increase either the capacity will increase. However the increase in Area will reduce the amount of pressure required to engage that clutch under normal driving and as such the shifts will be much quicker requiring the ZF to re learn.
