Philbo Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Hey, I understand that the T series diff out of a T18 fits into KE70s and AE71s, but I hear you can cut down a celica t series diff (RA60). But will this diff housing fit on a *E7* chassis? As in do the spring seats/4-links/panhard rod match up? And just wondering about taking car shells to simms. Do they buy them off you or is it a matter of you paying them to take it away? Any help would be appreciated - Cheers, Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xany Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 If you can get the car shell there they will pay you per ton for the metal. I only recently got rid of a shell and filled it up with mostly metal crap. I think it came to just over a ton and i got $51 for it....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philbo Posted March 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Thanks Xany, Cool, enough to pay for the fuel spent i guess. May as well stockpile any junk metal in advance to the trip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7shades Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I usually get about fitty for a wreck... and yeah I also fill it up with leftovers to make extra weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xany Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Correct, most metal recylers will have a higher rate for business customers (ones that have an ABN).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ancullen Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I got $7 for the last KE55 shell we took to Sims. I've had another one taken there during last week - not sure how much we got (I won't see the money), but it had a K40 gearbox in the back as well as some other crap. I've got another KE55 that will be going there soon and will have a 4K sitting in it, but no doors. :owned: Might make as much as $10! :abuse: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philbo Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Haha wow, $7. Did they give you a rate for $ per tonne? Oh well, I'll just have to take what i get, or get Andrew's Dad to bring it for me. :abuse: Yes I'm in Humpty Doo, the junk i have so far is only an old Corolla Borg warner housing and axles (says KE36 on it) And a mate has a pair of standard KE70 struts with rooted tops. The reason I ask about the Simms and T diff info, is because a friend has an unwanted, engineless RA60 I'm hoping to grab. Just working out what is useful for an AE71 (Struts/diff) Another mate has dibs on the Gearbox atm though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ancullen Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 I didn't drop the car off, but wasn't fussed about what it got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
