Not 100% sure mate...will have another look next time I'm out stripping it. I am going to take everything that is usable off and scrap the shell.. Then sell all the stuff I dont need. So I will let you know mate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaver Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Just a heads up, not sure that washer arrangement on the top side will pass cert. From memory there needs to be a plate that's 3000mm2 (e.g. 50x60mm) that the bolts pass through. There is a lvvta driveshaft loops fact sheet thingy that spells it out. Edit - link https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.lvvta.org.nz/documents/infosheets/LVVTA_Info_07-2016_Drive-shaft_Safety-loop_Requirements.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwiew8W1o8f1AhXATmwGHSf_AXkQFnoECAQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw292hljGfPsbMtkkM0ZeVUf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(not sure if it will work that way around or not will look more into it tonight. When I set up tps on my link the values were round the wrong way as well but I think it doesn't matter as long as it has a range from 0 - 100 up or down. That was an after market ecu tho.. Could be different for oem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
