Sierra back end dimensions
Mansfield - 26/5/06 at 06:30 PM

I am going to strip out my Sierra back end tomorrow.

Are there any dimensions I should take or anyone needs before I throw the subframe etc., or are these well known on here?

David,

Gonna depend on what you are making, if rear wishbones are included on list, measure distance between drum faces etc and drum face to centre of diff (driveshafts are different lengths).

Will be IRS.

I was wondering if I (or any one else) could take advantage of the numbers before the scrap man got the bits.

Look on my website, in the downloads section and you will find plans for de dion and IRS for a locost, based on the sierra rear end. You can get the measurements you need off of that.
