Rangie46 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Prob been thinking to much as I have not built my 4.0 yet, but was thinking about when I install ms and I know Nige does a wheel for the 4.0/4.6 but requires the pulley to get put on a lathe, so was thinking about a ring gear type wheel that the end user would only need to drill and tap the pulley to fit the wheel, prob get a better idea from a pic as a pic can explain it better I made a template out of card so you can get the idea The for dots are where you would drill into the pulley and tap and bolt as shown here What do you guys think? obviously I would not be making these but I thought this may make the trigger wheel install on the 4.0/4.6 serp easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Machining the pulley is a much easier way of getting the trigger wheel running true. Drilling and tapping could have the trigger wheel running way off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 You're also bolting it to the part that's isolated by rubber, so in theory can move relative to the true crank position. Probably not moving much in reality, but may not be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangie46 Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 I see just had a poke with my finger and the outer part has rubber in between so could cause some movement, was just thinking about easier ways, so on the lathe it shall go.
