Hi All

I would like to contact Nick Jones to discuss the rear driveshaft conversion. I've clicked the link  a few times on the sideways technology link, but have not received the email with the  link to join. Any ideas how I can make contact ?

In the meantime, what are the parts I need to start searching for ?!!

 

Thanks.

You can read about Nicks conversion on his website. http://www.shadetreegarage.co.uk/Vitds1.htm#top

Ok, thanks. I have read that page before, and it is very helpful. But unless I'm missing something it doesn't actually tell me where the parts have been sourced from. I've seen on various posts what I think is the answer, but ideally I would like someone to tell me for sure what I need to get, so that I can start trawling ebay. And, as I understand it Nick is someone who knows more than most, but obviously I'm happy to be told by anyone who knows their stuff!

Thanks.

Volvo 340 V/lobro joints

Rover 100 driveshaft (need to dig about as to which one)

Adaptors for diff to volvo CV. And a GKN speedboot  as a CV gaitor.

MGF/rover 100 outer cv and ideally hub.Plus bearing

Rotoflex upright machined to suit (and care needed, last one I helped with the chap hadn't machined enough out the back so when the hub was torqued up it bound up and locked solid.

 

The volvo CV and teh rover shaft are hard to find now. But they do turn up.
