Those are the caps that the trunnions pivot on, not for the universals on the driving axle inside the trunnion tube.The only thing that will wear/go missing is the roller pin caps that go over the ends of the uni joints - they are available from mecaparts but are a bit pricey at 137Euro.
Just check all the roller pins are all there (they fall our easily) and they are well greased up.
Of course! Sorry for the misleading post. The std ones are fairly robust, different if you are running 130Hp through a strongbox, then you need to speak to Richard MannThose are the caps that the trunnions pivot on, not for the universals on the driving axle inside the trunnion tube.
In the 70's there was a 16 powered 4CV that used to race at the (long defunct) Mt Ginn dirt circuit in Canberra. It was built and raced by Alf (Noddy) Fripp - who was a Renault mechanic (originally from Corin Motors I think).My quest for a more powerful 4cv in the seventies only involved fitting a dauphine gordini engine and gearbox. 16 power in a 4cv must be a lot of fun.
Many years ago on a chassis dyno the 16 TS motor on Webers in the 4CV had 116Hp at the wheels. Also many years ago with a gentlish start to hopefully avoid breaking yet another R10 box, it ran a flat 13 sec 1/4mile at I think 105mph.My quest for a more powerful 4cv in the seventies only involved fitting a dauphine gordini engine and gearbox. 16 power in a 4cv must be a lot of fun.
Alan's is quite exciting...... You multiplied the power by about 2X and he's close to 6X I reckon..... Road legally what's more.My quest for a more powerful 4cv in the seventies only involved fitting a dauphine gordini engine and gearbox. 16 power in a 4cv must be a lot of fun.
