Rekord-C und Commodore-A Forum

I have heard that the reflector from a Volvo 740 should fit a Rek C/Commo A with a little bit of adaptation. I have not seen it done though.

There are of course small differencies regarding speedo cable, reverse light switch and shifter placements depending of model and year, but the main dimensions stay the same.

Is there anyone making wide wheelarch-kits like those Steinmetz did in the early seventies ? Or has anybody adapted an Ascona A or similar kit on a Commodore ? My -67 2d limo just started to look so skinny...

I´m quite sure that the gaskets in the 6- and 4-cylinder trannies are the same, The output shaft seal is different due to the beefier shaft(I don´t know about the input shaft seal though). Try ordering the kit with only the gaskets and order the suitable output shaft seal separately. I couldn´t find...

It´s ok for the input shaft to feel loose, cause it´s supported by the pilot bearing in the crankshaft. I guess you have to test drive to find out the condition of the box.

There are basicly two sizes of the std 4-speed with both column- and floor shifters . The "reinforced" large can be found in ABC Commodores, 6 cyl KADs, Senators, Monzas and in the Rekord 22i(at least that´s what the guy whom i bought one of said it came from). The weaker version can be fo...

I´m still waiting for mine to arrive, but I believe it´s going to be late spring before I can drive the car(it´s in pieces on the garage floor for the time being). I´m also planning to do the uniball conversion, but I don´t know yet how I´m going to do it, with a uniball in the K-member or with a r...

What do you think of these: http://www.mustangforums.com/forum/classic-mustangs-tech/564545-adjustable-strut-rods-for-a-65-a-2.html or these: http://dazed.home.bresnan.net/adjustable With this type of modification there is no need to weld anything, so it probably should be easier to pass the safety ...

Here is a formula for naturally aspirated engines that puts you in the right ballpark: displacement increase in liters x ps/liter of the current engine x 0,8 = power increase 1,979 - 1,897 = 0,082l 90ps/1,897l = 47,443ps/l 0,8 is an approximation of the current engines efficiency, newer 16v engines ...

I´ll answer my self. After scrolling around on diverse forums i found out that all gears fit on the same diff housing and that parts seems to be available at www.limitedslip.de

Nice looking ride !

Does anyone know where to buy spare parts like clutches for a Commodore sperre ? Does any parts from Manta, Ascona, Kadett LSD:s fit ? Is the diff universal for all gears or are there different LSD-housings for certain gears(like 3,18-3,44:1 vs 3,67:1 and up) ? The reason I´m asking is that I bought...

Ich denke die waren es. Ich glaube ich hatte die alten Hülsen vom Rekord

nehmen müssen.

Is the price for a complete set or for one side only ?
