I was under the car today and I came across these tiny little spring hangers.

 

One day I do plan to run some power and I was wondering how these will hold up? ( I was thinking of just cutting them off and making some new ones out of 6mm plate)

 

I would like to hear if these little hangers will do the job ?

 

*EDIT* how do i put a topic beside / under the heading ?

Here's some progress of the diff install.

 

Its a hilux diff with 300mm rota's and R31 Calipers to pull her up.

Yesterday I made up a tail~shaft to suit the HiLux diff and I installed the machanical locker.

I had the last week off work and I have put a little bit of time into the old Corolla.

 

Its quite at work this week so I have been sneaking back and using some of the equipment.

 

I milled off the "NISSAN" on the calipers.

 

Did a little bit of CAD on the computer to see if things will fit.

 

Made same caliper adaptors at work on the CNC (sorry i forgot the camera)

 

Bolted it together to see how it looks (the rota will be bolted to the back of the hub which are on order)

 

 

 

Will post a picture when its all together with the rota and will let you know what parts were used.

Today I put together a Hydro pedal box for the "Lady"

 

I had a hydro pedal set up from an AE92 and i thought that it would make an easy setup instead of the cable setup.

 

 

 

Reomval of the cable setup.

 

Turned up a spacer on the lathe.

 

 

The little mig that was spare in the workshop.
