Random question -- should there be any play between the front and rear wheels turning?
If I lock down the front wheels with my hands (holding them in the air) and then try to roll the car back and forth on its back wheels, I can roll it about an inch back and forth before the slipper is forced to engage.
So basically there is about an inch of roll back and forth when one set of wheels is locked down.
Logically I can't see why it would do this unless the middle or back belts is massively slipping (broken teeth or belts). The front belt is fine.

I'm curious why there are still two pulleys (the ones for the side belt) they don't make aluminum versions of? Do these take less of a beating than the rest of the pulleys?

I went through the whole drivetrain, serviced the diffs and put in all aluminum pulleys and gear diff pulleys and replaced the front belt anyway. About half of the play was eliminated, so I'm guessing there is just a little bit of play in the belt system that develops over time.

You obviously would know more than i would. It would be very interesting to run back to back with the full belt tunnels to see if it is noticeable though. And i dont mean by me, i mean someone who COULD tell. 5 trips to the track a year doesn't qualify me. I do enjoy dremeling up someone else's design though, probably more than driving

The play that you are feeling is in the rear large pulley and small one. Over time with a hot mod motor the small pins in the jackshaft /layshaft will slightly wear the slots in the plastic pulley's. I simply put a couple drops of CA in the slots and it locks it down great...no more play. I don't think its that big of a deal and I've never had a pulley or side belt fail, heck a year on this car and still all original belts. My car is stock with a 6.5 and it's been the most reliable wheeler I've ever had.

My front belt was skipping.
It was a broken bearing on the front layshaft.
The US size, the one I didnt have. But someone could help me.

Okay, I've been scouring the forum while waiting for my 22-4 2.0 kit to be delivered...
Am I right in assuming that for the rear suspension on the setup sheet:
22 hub/hex is the 2.0 kit hub & hex (same as 22 3.0)??
22-4 hub/hex is the hub & hex from 22-4 1.0??
Cheers for all the tips & advice on here folks!!
