Hi, I'm posting again here i first posted in the tech forum but then I realised there was a dedicated fiesta forum.
I'm building an electric hillclimb car,
www.davidleobonner.com, it has a diff by westgarage in Scotland (
www.westgarage.co.uk) it's a Viscous Limited-Slip based on Fiesta parts, and it has tripod cups (but no tripods or driveshafts supplied). I need to get parts (driveshaft ends, tripods) to weld up some custom hollow driveshafts to fit my outer joints which are fiesta MK4.
Can someone tell me
1) Which ford fiestas use tripods? The builder of the diff isn't sure.
2) Are they several types of tripod cups on fiestas, in which case I need to figure out which kind my cups are? (I hope the answer is no)
3) Among the tripod equipped fiestas (or other compatible ford) do any have hollow shafts ? Hollow would be best for cutting & welding to custom length.
Many thanks in advance
David
