I agree with Carl

I agree with Carl

That's normally a good bet.

So…..Carl is saying skippy's shaft is too small?

 

[skippy]

I didn't mean run a different seal...I meant so you could still use smaller shaft blank material (1.5"+ O.D.) and have a larger spot on it for the seal surface, which I think is something like 1.625".

The price in 1.5" material and 1.625 was negligible so it was worth buying the bigger material and turning it down so I can keep factory seals.

Whoa that's what this was about? I changed my vote

 

[I Lean]

Yeah, I assumed he was starting with 1.5" stock like everyone else does. That's what I get for assuming.

....and skippy counters with measurements....

 

[N-Smooth]

....and skippy counters with measurements....

So it's really probably like 1"

Isn't there a formula for that?

...but it's an angry inch, right?

She isnt shy... Ask away

I bet you guys didnt know that the face of an average spline has 20 or more different radiuses in it.... BAM skippy dropping knowledge bombs up in here

and most custom shaft manufacturers cut a straight face spline... So by cutting my own shafts I will get a stronger better and way cooler shaft

I've never heard women's locker room talk, but I'd assume there is some kind of theory/formula?

Still weaker than Toyota axles

 

[I Lean]

Still weaker than Toyota axles

Uh....BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA, funny funny stuff. :greg:

 

[skippy]

my 1" member they are talking about is stronger than a toy axle!

 

[Coco]

Oh I know, I just gotta poke fun cuz of all the crap you gave me

 

[skippy]

BAM brake part!

 

[Coco]

Looks similar to what I got. I went with 7/8" masters. Mine still seem spongy, and dont stop all that well, but I think it just needs to be bled more.

What style pedals? Floor mount?

I hate floor mount pedals they just feel unnatural to me, I asked around and for my brake set up i decided 3/4 would be best although i figured no matter what i did it would end up swapping them out as soon as i drove the rig.
