Hello all.

This may have already been covered but maybe someone could help enlighten myself.

I am intending to build a bike engined Locost 7.

Anyway I note that a number of companies use the Freelander rear diff, seems like a good idea to me.

But what are people using to connect it all up? what prop' are people using to connect the engine and diff? and what driveshafts are people using to go between the diff and the generally used Sierra hub carriers?

I assume that the driveshafts must be some sort of custom modification but what are they based on?

Any help appreciated as I'm starting to plan my build and collect the parts I need.

Cheers

Any chanceyou could list the parts on this thread Andy - might be a useful resource for aomeone building a BEC midget special with IRS

the fisher way of doing it is custome propshaft (you will pretty much one of these anyway so no extra cost, freelander diff and drive shaft inners with sieera solid drive shaft outers. the drive shafts are sleeved and welded together.

you can get proper shafts made up (gb engineering rings a bell) but these aren't really needed on a road car.
