Ouch ya that is pricey

Rocketman - did you ever find out what the BF AWD guys do for axles with a BG trans?

[Rocketman]

Where'd you end up finding one at? Thats pretty pricey, ouch

[daniel_cogar]

okay I finally found a 4wd protege jack shaft and its on its way they said by 7 days at the most. costed me 175.00 I just hope its the right one! anyway ill be gone all week for army national guard duty so will update when I get back. Hopefully with the correct jack shaft. -Dan

[daniel_cogar]

okay im getting this info lol thanks for helping

[Rocketman]

whats the measurement of the end dia of the 4wd pro inter axle....is there a diff in the 4wd vs 2wd pro inter axle?

the 2wd pro intermediate shaft is the same thing as the hydro gtype that you are trying to sell right now

[daniel_cogar]

ok thanks this is holding me up bad.... ive seen the engine setting in there but cant do anything without axles lol

[Nerd Racing]

there is a difference, its shorter externally and longer internally I believe. I'll try and get some measurements of mine tonight or tomorrow morning.

yeah I had to wait a while to get mine. perhaps try calling engine importers. they sometimes separate the transmissions from the engines.

Just think, no front wheel bearing issues!

lol i know.. i posted a wtb on cp.com for the inter axle but nothing yet.. the more i think about it i might start looking for those knuckles

[daniel_cogar]

yeah i may end up going that route.. I just put brand new everything on the front tho thats why i was leaning away from that but who knows lol

[Nerd Racing]

as far as CV's go, I got mine from Autozone.

[Nerd Racing]

why not upgrade to BG front hubs so you don't need any BF parts? according to rocketman's schematic all you have to do is flip the inner CV on the driver's axle and be done with it?

You will get bigger brakes if you snag protege LX or Escort GT hubs

[daniel_cogar]

I actually sold Jeff BG front AWD knuckles so he has BG outers too.

This whole shenanigans is why I went with a wider wheel base so I can use off the shelf Protege axles and be done with it.

i dont think it will be to bad once i het a inter shaft to work with
