Re: Billet forward and direct drums
I would try to make it complete as possible. The multi-spring pack and over size piston for high gear for sure, bushings installed. I dont know the pricing on pressure plates, seals, frictions and steels.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums
I really want to make this happen, its been a plan of mine for years now. I've been to 4 different machine shops people said they can do it, 4 months go by and they call say they cant do it. other company had me order round stock and then said they cant do it.

When I say "complete" I'm not referring to consumables or wear items like seals, steels, frictions, etc., things that you can get in a standard rebuild kit I don't expect to be supplied. I'm talking hard parts, basically anything that I can NOT get out of a Transtar catalog.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums
Yup, I will include everything like that for a direct fit.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums
if its custom pieces and parts there is no real way to know the consumables will be available in a transtar rebuild kit or catalog for that matter same goes for clutches, gotta have some sort of idea on sizing to try and source those needed parts as well

The point of these drums is to be able to use the more common high performance 904 clutches and steels. I hope some forethought goes into the pistons to be able to use 904 seals and o-rings.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums
Sizing? I’m not making a piece and hoping that I find clutches and steels that fit. Not sure I understand your post.

From reading the posts above I gather if there is enough interest it will happen.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums
Yes sir, supposed to talk to machine shop tonight. I think we have enough to make this a reality. Will keep everyone updated.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums
My question would be if this is the one item to buy a backup of, since it's near impossible to obtain.

If I had the means, I'd certainly buy multiples to keep or resell.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums
I will for sure be getting 2 of each as I want a spare trans ready to install. Once there designed, getting more shouldn't be a problem.
Re: Billet forward and direct drums

Re: Billet forward and direct drums
That's the plan for sure at the moment, planning on no sleep for the next two weeks. Stop over and hang out.
