Wow, lot's of questions and to be honest, I would have thought that Team Xterra Racing would have been the best resource for most of those questions.

Yes...but numerous attempts at having a spool produced have fallen through...I have never seen someone get jerked around more than Dave has in dealing with a # of different fabricators and in order to get the X to the front of the pack it needs to have that rear end solved...and I'm trying to do this kinda on my own as Dave has tons on his plate...So??? Please help me!! Please....

 

Sorry, I have never pulled my rear shafts, I have no idea.

 

Do the rules of the race series require the use of the stock axle housing, etc? If not maybe your time would be better spent looking for a suitably upgradable replacement rear end. There may be bolt pattern issues, etc.

I'm just saying if the rules allow that maybe an entire aftermarket custom axle would be the ticket for a race team.

Yeah, we HAVE to keep the stock housing and such to remain within the 3100 class though all the internals can be changed (thus allowing a spool or custom gearing....)

 

Oh well then.

You could weld it.

Did that this last race...and heat treated it...still broke...

 

Have you looked in the Titan world? A spool for the Titan diff should fit.

Yup...only the truetrak LSD...no spools...

 

Wow, seeing how easy it really is to make a spool, that shocks me.

Have you contacted TrueTrak to see if they would make one. They already have the specs needed.

What is actually breaking?

 

I assume when not welded the side or spider gears.

When welded I assume either the welds or the entire carrier.

THAT'S a good point...and its the same M226 thats in the Titan's thats in the OR Xterra correct??

 

Correct it is. lloyd already had a TruTrac installed in his X.
