Ignore the hate, you're clearly learning on the fly with zero prior knowledge of motorbikes and probably very little knowledge of three wheelers, I think its beautiful 😂 love the content, breaking it and fixing it is all part of the journey
Brutal watching u pound screwdrivers into diff while the jack is holding the leaf spring locating pin into leaf spring pad. But as the saying goes "it isnt stupid if it works".
Sweet project mate. I’ve got a K11 Nissan Micra that I’ve put a Suzuki Bandit 1250 engine into. I’ve also used a push/pull cable (TH400 selector cable from memory) and it works perfectly. The mounting points do have to be rigid though as you’ve worked out, and the throw of the cable end needs to move in/out as parallel as possible. It looks like it’s moving in quite a bit of an arch at the shift lever. That could be helped by bringing the attachment point a bit higher up the shift lever. I do think that a solid diff will be a bit sketch I a 3 wheeler too, but you’re gonna find out soon enough. It should at least do some good donuts!
Properly impressed with your personal progress and I mean that in a non patronising way. I used to be thinking in my head why don’t he do this that and the other now days you already have them in mind or actually attempt these things like the welded cable mount to the chassis and diff etc. Love the channel always enjoy your videos.👍🏻
Don’t worry about it, everything get problems you always get over em some how…… everyone loves the build loves the content just keep it up lad, the only way to learn is to just try it
You want to limit the movement of your gear lever so that it doesn't stretch the cable. I think as it is, the cable getting stretched is what ended up snapping the cable. You only want the gear lever to travel backwards and forwards enough to be able to change the gears
I'm following the project with great interest. Perhaps when you get tired of replacing gear cables may i suggest a aystem of rods and swivels? Also, it shouldn't be hard to change gears - those 600 gearboxes are usually pretty smooth. Might be easier with the engine running. But I expect that your current mods will show an improvement anyway. Good luck with the project. I cant wait to see it running properly.
Wow there’s some hate in these comments 🤯🤯 leave the poor lad alone he’s learning as he goes and doing new things, 100% rather watch this content than somone putting an air filter on 10 different cars 👀
doesn't bother me anymore mate, people dont understand that is is a laugh and people who actually have time to attempt to give people sh*t on the internet do not effect my life in anyway haha! I fact I look forward to bad comments, bad comments only come on videos that are getting more views.. so bring them on! bad comments = more views!
Now theres two types of criticism' criticism for criticism sake (negative) and constructive criticism ( positive ) the later is great it helps people to stay safe and also to teach and warn of dangers and helps people to succeed. All i see is constructive criticism on this page we all want to see him succeed But safely. welding up a diff on a 3 wheeler isnt it will cause it tip maybe even into a tree at speed. Trying to stop that isnt hatefull. many people dont /refuse/ or ignore the diffrence between constructive criticism or just criticism for criticism sake them people always come worse off or a croper. I personally love constructive criticism its taught me not stick my fingers in a fire and other stupid shite etc
@@chrislewis4830 Exactly that, besides the whole build just isn't done right. he cut out a structural support to fit the engine in, while also cutting out a lot of fibreglass. he had the opportunity to make a clean chassis when he took the body off. Now it's a death trap with a rusted front A arm which without a doubt will break.
Personally I wouldn't weld the diff on a rialto/robin, the open diff is a safety feature if you lift a wheel there isn't any power getting to the ground and it just sits back down, one of the main things they done on top gear to get it to roll was weld the diff, that being said with the bike engine it might lose traction before it starts to lift a wheel 😂 I have a mk3 robin and fancy putting a bike engine in it
With this balls up job on the diff, this plastic pig is either going sideways up or belly up. There is a reason the diff is like it was and that reason is that Reliant knew what they were doing.
@@itsleelockwood lol..I get it, no disrespect intended, but seeing how fast you can stuff a standard one of those into a corner, and still come out intact is a laugh all by itself..😂 Have fun, we talked about putting a bike engine into ours as a sleeper thirty+ years ago, slaying XR3i's at the traffic lights lol, other projects and budgets stopped that one tho, nature of the beast. 🙏❤️
Welded diff on a three wheeler ,this will be like a honda atv trike (the most dangerous thing in the world), you will be turning the steering wheel but going straight on
Great build 👍 crazy idea and I love it 😂. Just for reference if it's looking like M6 it's probs 1/4" (0.250) unf or unc. There are loads of charts online for machinists converting sizes 👍 Good luck with the build. Can't wait to see that thing rip 😂
Someone may have already said, but just a heads up. Neutral on a bike is a floater between 1 and 2 it won't click or clonk into neutral is more of a feel (gently, gently) 1st to 2nd goes straight in. Click click no problem. Normally when riding you would go all the way down to 1st, if it doesn't go let the clutch out a small bit and your feel it click down... but down to 1st and slowly towards 2nd till the neutral light comes on or it feels slack. Thought this might help.
If you have a flight delay of over 3 hours and it was the airlines fault, you just fill in a form on their website and you get a payment. Dead easy and free. Skycop will do the same but then take their cut out of it, you don't need skycop at all 😂
Welding the diff........ this is going on it's roof. drove one for 3.5 years, with the correct tyres, no need to weld the diff, they slide sideways nicely even on a stock 850cc engine. this will only be useful on a drag strip now. Far less controllable.
Diff stud is probably 1/4 UNF (28 TPI), although in some cases when threaded into alloy UNC (20 TPI) was used. There is a possibility the studs may be UNC into the diff case and UNF for the nut end. Imperial threads are such fun!
*Sorry Lee but your comments about LSD are rubbish. A proper mechanical LSD will be consistent and won't be dragging tyres through the bends or causing issues on deceleration. Go and speak to the guys at Quaife!*
Your right an LSD is safer and better for most driving, I think he was trying to say for drifting it’s not what he wants lol he’s just man learning as he goes chap 👍
Im applying my knowledge from driving rear wheel drive cars in regard to the rear end losing traction, I know the rear in in this car will have no grip.. so I would rather it act consistently rather than fighting itself.. LSD's are great for fast grip driving, not so much this application, plus I am going to spend thousands on a diff for a car that wont turn a corner anyway? hahaha nope
There is also the issue of bump steer because it's a tricycle and the fact that it's got half as much rubber at the front. I can see this ending up upside down, reliants handle horrifically anyway, I know I've had one.
@@itsleelockwood Are you aware than in a RWD 3 wheeled vehicle, the open differential prevents you from flipping onto the roof? Judging from you LSD understanding i guess a big NO.
I think it would be worth adapting the clutch cable idea to using a control rod and watts linkage style as a pivot instead. Similar idea to a bellcrank so it's reliable and strong but instead of changing direction 90 degrees, its a 180 degree change. Getting a 'watts linkage' style pivot should also mean that the gears are reversed too so pulling back on the gear stick will go up a gear instead of how it's currently pushing forward to go up a gear.
Lee lockwood go to x r fasteners at lambs Lane North I believe is the side they stock everything and if they have not got it then they can mate normally
It gets to a point where you’re watching a video and suddenly become aware that the dream is bigger than the talent. Running a 109hp engine through what I would start to call a death box is getting rather concerning. I’m trying to not be completely negative but man; there’s so many dangerous things with this build, with no real technical know-how. It’s just slap-dash and bodged. I’m all for special builds but man. Absolutely knackered the housing, the cable setup, the engine mounting brackets, the cable management brackets. You flip this thing and any of that buckles it’s going to impale somebody. Or you’re going to bind up a cable and run yourself WOT into a tree. Please, please reset yourself and instead of loading shit on shit - take a step back and have a re-think on how you’re approaching it and stop rushing through.
I appreciate the concern but, its going around a car park, theres much more dangerous builds on TH-cam.. theres many other yotubers flying around at 100+mph through public roads, on cars that were also built in a garage
A push/pull gear wire you could use is off either ford fiesta 2007, or a citreon saxo/berlingo/peugeot 106/306, and you should have made it a rear engine and put it in a direct shaft like a gokart would of saved some much messing around with clearance issues and diff issues
I’m pretty sure that on my go cart that had a bike engine in it you had like a rod to change get with some nuckles on the end if that makes sense mby worth looking into cause the cable gonna give you issues
dude all you had to do was take the gear selector connection off and move it 20 degres around the shaft wish id seen this earlier , looks great , should have used a bigger engine
OK with the gear issue why did you you just spin the arm 180 degrees on the splines that way you could of still mounted the bracket on the floor? Second problem..... Why would you want to weld a diff on a vehicle with only one steering wheel. Think about it.. where does that front wheel run when you are driving around? Yeah thats right , in the middle of the road where all the gravel and dirt collects where there is less grip.
You would have gotten away with moving the linkage on the gear shaft splines getting the cable and linkage as close to 90° as possible. The problem was the cable was trying to push the linkage sideways instead of rotating it.
Hey up mate a cable won't want to work in push mode , you'll need two ov them so one can pull for up then the other can pull for down , or just go the simple way and have a rod linkage
FFS Lee, you can't go showing Snap-on what we actually use their screwdrivers for 😂 thats trade secrets mate. Tech to dealer "honestly it just broke when i undone the jubilee clip"
Why didn't you put a near enough threaded bar through the 8th hole and then put a washer and 2 nuts on either end to spanner it together tight? If you had a load of sealant that'd 100% hold
Most dangerous thing you could of ever done to a 3 wheeler is weld the diff, thats how the top gear team got his robin to roll over so easy.... If you go onto 2 wheels the open diff means you lose power, with a welded diff you'll roll it over so your talk about making it "consistent" is bollocks 🤣the video you added of the car rolling over was also from the top gear live show with a welded diff so it would roll over so easy
A cable is never going to work you need to make a linkage,also the foot clutch foot pedal should work fine as long as the cable stops are mounted correctly not being shitty just a biker of 55 years trying to be helpful.😊
Cables are designed to pull, not push. A single cable for the gear change will never work. When you pull a cable the strands tighten up but when you push they open apart.
this is why they use 2 cables not 1 a single cable cant handle pushingh as well as pull you could do this far cheaper with 2 push bike brake cables they are more then strong engoth for the job and have it so forwed one cable pulls and when you push the other cable pulls like throttle cables on motorcycles are
The diff welding is probably a waste of time as the whole thing is not going to steer nicely when you accelerate it with that Kawa engine and only a puny single tire on the front. It will just go in whatever direction it decides and you will not be able to correct that until you ease up on the throttle. Maybe @MuYe can simulate that on BeamNG Drive with The Pigeon? EDIT: Forgetaboutit as the diff is fubar anyway. Just don't kill yourself with that thing...
You shouldn’t of had the jack on the other side of it because when you dropped the other side off of the pension, it would’ve put pressure on the studs and the shaft
You're an England you can't find a bolt that's the same boat that's on almost every Lamborghini it's not a weird bolt it's a common bolt used in the United States

This ^^ I believe the Top Gear crew did exactly this to make it roll.
Top Gear did that to stop the car from settling automatically. Although he has stiffened it up to a point where he will have no spine.
Welded diff in that is the death blow.
Its designed to lose drive when the wheel lifts, stops you ending up on the roof.
Hence why Top Gear welded it.
yep, no idea why he believes a welded diff would help it
