Title: Type 1 transmission mainshaft 4.38/2.67 or somewhere near Post by: Phil West on September 06, 2019, 14:23:42 pm Does anyone know if this mainshaft exists. I'm sure I recall it being made at some point (maybe FTC?). Anyway I'm after that or somewhere near. There's a Weddle 4.25/2.54 but the second gear is too tall for me.
Title: Re: Type 1 transmission mainshaft 4.38/2.67 or somewhere near Post by: Fastbrit on September 06, 2019, 16:19:35 pm FTC do (or did) a 4.11/2.47 mainshaft, but I've not heard of a 4.38.

The closest Weddle has on their site is 4.25/2.54 https://weddleindustries.com/products/1000154/1004933 Title: Re: Type 1 transmission mainshaft 4.38/2.67 or somewhere near Post by: Phil West on September 07, 2019, 13:08:20 pm Ah ok thanks Bruce, well there’s a shred of hope I can find an old one available then!
Title: Re: Type 1 transmission mainshaft 4.38/2.67 or somewhere near Post by: dangerous on September 10, 2019, 00:28:49 am I had an ALBINS 002 (Weddle) one, years ago, built for a customer buggy
that was used for 'crawling' and beach work, (used it with a 5.43 Crown wheel and pinion), but it was quite weak in tooth size, so wouldn't recommend it for any sticky pavement! It was 4.375 (35/8 tooth count) ( first gear and 2.6154 (34/13 tooth) second gear. So yes, they WERE available.

Might not be the best for big launches by the sounds of it!
