Next weekend) - Toyota Altezza, 2.5 liter, 1999
The weekend was productive! :)
Finally, the problem was solved with the attachment of the gearshift pad to the body!
layout making:
cutting on a workpiece from a sheet of steel 5-ki
actual "product"
after painting:
in place:
In addition, the seals on the "lobovine" were replaced.
Before:
after:
Among other things, it turned out that the pallet rests on a beam, so it was decided to "modify" it
gap test
They also installed a cardan shaft, dismantled the old fuel lines, changed the gas station, started connecting the software to the engine, assembled the interior :) finally, the light at the end of the tunnel began to be seen a little bit;)
And yes, for sure, I remembered the regular one, in the same place like a cell from below.
I just noticed right now - did you lengthen the shank, or screwed the regular one?
The regular one is made of light-alloy and the thickness there is only due to stiffeners, at first there were also doubts about the strength of the structure, but having estimated all the pros and cons, we came to the conclusion that from the effort on the fold, the pillow would rather destroy than bend the plate;) nevertheless, running Nobody canceled the test ;)
ZY, in the places of attachment to the body, reinforcement was made due to the lining of plates of a similar thickness, they can be seen in the photographs "after painting";) but their function is rather for "gaining thickness" than "gaining strength";)
Hey, this is an interesting project.
Regarding the fastening, there was no thought to make a double one?
It’s just that the standard bracket is about a centimeter long, you can even see it in one of the photos.
And why did you cover the new plate only with primer? soil does not protect against water penetration. Paint the plate with some more paint so it doesn't rust.
olypaly! :) Well, why are you attached to the plate! if this calms you all, then I kind of know the strength of materials and construction equipment firsthand;) everything will be fine with it, it will not bend anywhere :) There were two ways to redo the pallet: 1. digest (well, there is Argon gas and associates) 2 Hammer and Antokh's faithful friend. We came to the conclusion that the second option is somehow faster and more technologically advanced :)
I haven't visited you for a long time, I've already done a lot! painstaking work, don’t you think that the plate under the gearbox is thin? how thick is it? By the way, how did you end up redoing the pallet? with a hammer?))
