Well the CTIS system on the rear axle is complete and have been leak free for a couple of week :)

Maybe try to upload a video later this week.

 

Edit..   Did a deflate inflate speedtest.    From 25psi down to 10 and then up to 25 again in 3minutes

Awesome!

 

Thanks :)

 

 

Are you F**king kidding me?! You even have a remote tire inflation/deflation system??? That is SICK! 

 

 

and whats that other CAD drawing of, the one thats not obviously a bumper?

 

 

FPC

 

Yes it is nice to inflate the tires from the inside of the car but most important is the Bragging factor ;)

 

it is the backside of the winchplate, made some weight reduction pockets...

 

 

Thanks for your comments, its nice with some replies :)

Didnt manage to climb the hill, but did manage to flatten my exhaust system and destoying my rear bumper :)

 

 

 

Wow that's probably the sweetest Comanche I've ever seen. I always thought portals made so much more sense than regular straight axles.

 

Thanks

Yes portals are nice! Too bad not more cars have portals as original equipment.

I guess the only car that have Straight axle portals are

Volvo, Unimog and Uaz

 

 

 

Looking good!

 

Thanks

 

 

Hi, huricane4.  Any more news on the CTIS,  did you finish the front, twist the nylons off,  do they keep the pressure etc. etc.   :)

 

Hi

No, everything works as it is supposed to do and no leaks. I'll hook up the front axle when I have broadened the rims and installed them new tires.

Have you seen how they do this with phosphor copper.   I have been trying to find that info but not found anything online.  Reason is I have a set of axles I'm rebuilding and I have to have the drilling etc. done on the shafts and I'm trying to evaluate which way to go.

Nice,  how much of a flex in the shafts end to you think the nylon "can eat"  I haven´t checked yet the length there and perhaps it´s long enough to allow some flex in the shafts end.

 

0.1mm maybee?

Googled Phosphor copper and i think that could work!
