|
|
|
No one seems to have tried using an Iveco Daily transferbox for their builds, I wonder why. It's got to be strong enough for anything, it's a regular shape so easily mountable, and all the shafts are in a single vertical plane making it perfect for long travel independent suspension. And it's a remote box (divorced) so you could attach it to any rear wheel drive engine/gearbox combo. And it's cable operated by looks of things. It seems to tick all the boxes for an Independent Suspension Ultra4 truck !!!

looks good. what high/low ratios did they come with? will it work with your diff/gearbox/tyre size?

Gear ratio calculations yet to come once I select new engine.
I'm looking at a possible change of direction on my buggy build so looking at new engine possibilities and looking at independent suspension. Hence been looking at tbox options to suit.
Sorry I don't have the ratios to hand. There's a locker in there and the Iveco website says:
"torque distribution of 32% to the front axle and 68% to the rear axle"
Not sure what that means, maybe one of those fancy torsen diffs.

Guess if you chose that transfer box then diff/gearbox ratios could be picked to suit...

Sadly a no go. This transferbox has an RPM limit of 1500 in low range and a host of problems like overheating, circlip failure.

Are the output shafts "co-linear" to each other? Ie inline with each other?

yep. I had one but sold it thinking it was no use to me... ive learnt better since trying to modify the front axle to suit a fourtrak

just remember the funky prop rotations when picking/locating diffs!
