Sierra Diff Mount - help wanted making / buying
MikeR - 22/1/07 at 04:28 PM

Folks,

Want a sierra diff mount for my de-dion conversion. Yeah i know i could make one but buying seems easier.

So apart from GTS (I'm worried about supply) who else does them and any idea of cost?

If i was to make them, what would people reconmend, 3mm plate with trangular bits top and bottom to take sideways movement / spread the load?

Hi Mike,

The ones on my GTS chassis are 2mm plate IIRC and have a couple of small bracing bits of plate welded to them. Someone on here may be able to laser cut you some?

I've used 3 mm steel as you suggest. No problems with it.
