Hi!!
Some spare time and is moment to share some info about the work i've been on it.

As you can imagine, the gearbox is the main part needed by now.. Is not forgoten, only is building by a precision tecnician, in order to be more than perfect! but the same way i chose him to do it, so many other people does the same, and the time doenst stretches...

This is the progress until now:
At first, he made a nylon center to perfectly align the main shaft (is that the right therm? ) of the BMW box and the box pathern:


Made a Pattern base aswell, after chop it from gearbox will be the way to center in BMW box










Then, must built a base to fix the gearbox to chop it perfectly aligned











Until we wait for gearbox, there's so much work to do, then the BMW rear axle is on the way:

Been the diff in position, rear cross membre must grow into it, that way some moulding process is required







And chop.. and weld...





The same to the other side, but because the diff is by nature not aligned, the second part was so much more difficult





the same way, done the center fitment, this time in some stronger metal





And moulding again...



Rater than that, some reinforcements..


And welding.. almost all evening...





and reinforcements again.. and Welding...



And moulding again for some new reinforcements.. At this moment you may think this crossmember will wheight a Ton, but dont worry, is not that heavy and will stand nicely this massive diff.



By now this is the aspect it has by now, but still have so many weak points due to diferent diff..





By now it is all, new pics soon
