Glued the permanent Magnet back on the winch motor casing and put it all back together. freed up the brake as well (original problem) And wanted to Prove it before I really need it.

needed to pull this tree stump out so decided kill two birds with one stone.

hay nemofish

http://www.ladaniva.co.uk/baxter/resources/LowDiff.htm

that link will give some good info on all the diff ratios lada put out.

I got my 4.7;1 crown and pinions from lada sport in germany. I know they have alot of different ratios as well.

Nivapulledout

hay Reece, yeah the ratio seems a bit strange, std niva ratios are

1600 4 speed gearbox 4.3:1
1600 5 speed gearbox 4.1:1
1700 Fuel injected 3.9:1

I know a few lada cars got some lower ratio's but if they out of a niva they must be one of the above.

hope it helps

looks like you are on the way to having a sweet smooth running fiat twin cam, good work.

will have to try and bring booger up and go out with you guys some time, looks like you know some nice challenging places. Give me a bell next time you go out and I will see if I can make it.

nah lockers a fine, just found that the pressure switch cut off of 140psi is about the max my compressor is able to poke out. is ok without the engine running but I think the vibrations make the switch stay open a bit longer cause it keeps it running. weird one but seeing as just put all the lockers...

Yeah It is the same engine just a bit bigger did not know about them only thought there was a 1.7,1.8 and 1.9 but the 1.9 will be fine for me. dont want to rip the weak gearbox apart. mine already pops out of 4th when I lift off the throttle.
