thomo Posted October 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 its WAY eazy with the right tools, i've got 3 hoists, forklift, all the oxy, mig, press, air, and hand tools on hand so things that can take a week when you have to farm them out can be done here in the matter of an hour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomo Posted October 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 a woman nice to me??? don't get my hopes up! played with the car again tonight, ke 30 cable clutch pedal box out, drilled the spot welds off that hold the pedal mount on, modified it with the fbh tool (f@$king big hammer) and welded it back on a little higher on the pedal box, fitted a ae71 clutch pedal, drilled a hole in the fire wall and replaced some bolts the ae71 hydrolic master cyl now fits and working a treat add 4 hours to build time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomo Posted October 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 an ae71 wagon diff will fit in the ke30 without any problems HOWEVER because its 100mm wider the ke30 handbreak cable is really streched to fit, the ae71 is the right length but you need to relocate the retaining brackets on the floor pan to get it working (inner cable longer too) and xt130 drums and backing plates bolt right on i don't know what size it all is but the ae71 drum fits inside the xt130 drum, biggers better on brakes!

Corolla_Kid Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 ah so the the ae71 wagon is a leaf-sprung rear end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolla__Boy Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Just about all wagons and utes are leaf spring ass end, for the extra load they need to carry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomo Posted November 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2006 radiator in, its out of some telstar thing and fits just right, bottom brackets out of some mazda thing, top brackets out of some ford, the thermo fan sits of to the LH side inside the eng. bay and mounts at a slight angle so i have the added bonus of it blowing the heat of the headers and cooling the radiator still working on a remote thermostat housing (and no I'm not fitting RWD pump, it gets in the way of the supercharger) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
