Searching for the right Drive Shaft
my drive shaft have pretty bad vibration from 60kmh - 120kmh.... that is pretty much my whole driving range on highway...
because some stupid mechanic who i rather not mention here, insist that the cross joint on the driveshaft are serviceable, but i said it is not. so since he is so sure, i trusted him and now he couldnt put it back centered. so his workshop has to buy me replacement driveshaft. since i know the owner pretty well, and i don't want him to fork out too much $$ because of his stupid mechanic, so i offered him that i can look for a replacement one on the junk yard, as long as it doesn't vibrate...
so i call around and do abit of research online, and find myself one of a major wrecker in jakarta around pejaten area.
so i found few options that would fit, now its a matter of bargaining for the right price and mix and match few of the better example
SHIFTER GATE/PISTON CAP
i also have told the mechanic that he need to seal the shifter gate properly, but he insisted that the 20 years old C-ring clip is strong enough... so on sentul the cap get pushed out by the shifter gate/piston. this small piston is attached to a spring which will allow me to go from neutral position to 1st/2nd gear or if i press harder, it will go to reverse gear. because the gate is gone, there is no separation between shifting to 1st or reverse... hope that make sense... hahaha anywayyyy all is sealed now
also the rear diff seal wasn't installed properly, i had to get the other workshop who sold me the drive shaft to fix it for me. bloody hell...
now the car has stopped being a gain vibrator, i can wash all the remains from all the past victims... hahaha jk
