Possible 208 SYE plans

Yeah I need a bump in my butt to get moving on this, I am still kind of lacking the motivation after my daughter, and my wife still having some issues. But I am not letting this go, that is why I put up this post so people could poke me.:D

Well those who will come can see what I am doing, it's no Voodoo or even a secret thing that is why I am pricing it cheap so people could do it but would choose to buy it instead.
It's all going to be junkyard parts with a little bit of machine work.

Most everything on my truck is used anyway. It won't know the difference ;-)

What I meant was that I am not creating any new parts, all my ideas are how to use common junkyard parts and make them better for our abuse.
I am still trying to find the best way for people with a d44 or 10b to do cross over without the elusive flat top.
I have a design and I am just trying to see if it would be worth doing, or I may just put up a HOW TO.

I also have a couple of other projects in my head.:whistle:
 
I'd be interested also. I have a Tom Woods SYE on my current 208. Wouldn't mind outfitting my extra 208 with yours, makes swapping them that much easier when I bring spare parts in the trailer.

I don't know how long the Tom woods shaft is but I am doing pretty much the same thing.
 
I can measure the distance from the case to the flange if you need it. Either way, I'm sure it's close enough that my DS will take up the slack. :thinking:

My rig is built almost entirely from junkyard parts, or leftovers from rigs I scrapped out. Very few custom high dollar parts. Am I gonna win koh? not a chance but it sure is a fun cheap wheeling rig.

Id be interested in your crossover design. I am a fan of using the flat tops, I have plenty of them at my disposal but Id be interested in what you've come up with.
 
As you know from my post a few months ago, I am definately interested. I have just been wating to see what you came up with. I will start setting aside some cash now, unfortunately or fortunately, I just picked up my D60 / 14BFF so I still have to recover from that expense.

Where will you be shipping these from? If I remember right you are in CO quite often.

Well I know I am a slacker, I had started yesterday on it and got slammed by a nasty flu, but looks like it's mostly gone, so hopefully I will have something ready and get pics by this week end.
And as for shipping, I will be shipping from ZIP 95648.
I need to measure the final length of the tail, might be able to fit in a medium flat rate, which would be nice to keep the cost low, but for the core, it will not fit so you'll have to figure out shipping to my ZIP.
