Driveshaft Center Support Bearing Replacement - The Volvo 740 T5 Engine Swap Build

[@BackmansGarage]

Are you racing on the jack stands like me or do you have a finished build? Post something about your project, I would love to know what my viewers have going on in their garage! 😃

Great work on the channel! I have a 1990 740 daily beater and a 1972 142 project :) The project is pretty much a full restoration. Haven't decided on engine yet but most likely a b230fk for the ease of it, its going to be a road legal car so the plan is to follow volvo's own guidelines on 140 series. The guidelines says ventilated 240 discs at the front with 270163 (girling) pads. And 270164 rear pads (girling). On this setup you are allowed to run 180hp/215nm. To start off I plan to get hold of lh2.4 harness and run that, atleast untill the car and all the changes are approved by SVV.

Thanks! Sounds like a nice project 👍 I have newer owned any type of the 140 series. But some of my friends has owned serveral differnt types of them and i really like the bodywork on that model. I did own the 242 from 1975, i think they share alot with the previous 142 like the B20 and M40 setup and some interior parts, really miss that car. Lycky we have those guidelines! Not a lot of manufactures have recommendations for swapping engines back and forth 😃 The B230fk swap is a realtivly easy one, but if iam not misstaken the intake will hit the brake booster, but iam not sure. Wish you the best of luck with your build! 👍

[@m.freddy1761]

@@BackmansGarage Yeah I absolutely love the looks of the 140 series. Yes you are correct the intake will interfere with the brake booster, I am probably going to move the brake booster to the battery tray since the battery is relocated to the trunk of the car. Here you can see the solution for the brake booster scontent-cph2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t35.18174-12/15682110_10154027182651389_807617074_o.jpg?_nc_cat=105&ccb=2&_nc_sid=ae9488&_nc_ohc=JkT_e3swM4kAX_UKbOq&_nc_ht=scontent-cph2-1.xx&oh=acc0e9dacd9772c57a8c84c1e1af8612&oe=5FB30AF3

[@BackmansGarage]

Omg, haha never seen anything like that before. Nice way of getting around that problem 😃 👍 Any idea of where that booster comes from? Iam guessing that is stock on some car right?

[@m.freddy1761]

@@BackmansGarage Yep hehe! Its a booster from Volvo p1800/Amazon

thank you for a top shelf tutorial, coupled with a good personality.

[@sakandet]

Always fun to see a new video! I am tearing down the engine of my Honda CB650 1982 to rebuild the starter clutch!

[@BackmansGarage]

Nice! The first motorcycle I drove was actually an 80's cbr 👍 They feel like The motorcycle of the 80's, and if I ever start riding motorcycles, thats probably where I would start 😀👍

Thanks 👍

[@LarssonsGarage]

Snygg bild till videon! Högklassigt redigerat som alltid, ser ut som du fick ordning på resolve 17 till slut :p En bit gammalt avgasrör i lagom storlek brukar vara smidigt att slå på lagret med, om man råkar ha något liggande :)

[@BackmansGarage]

Tack, jag glömde bort att ta en thumbnail till videon så jag fick saxa ur ett klipp som inte kom med i videon 😃 Ja det är la dumt av mig att beskylla resolve iengtligen då det är plugin programmet som strular. Men ja, jag fick la ut 6/10 i kvalite tillslut :) Men det va synd för den är riktigt bra i redigeringsptogrammet, problemet uppstår vid export av klippet, precis när man tror att man har rott hem allt och börjar slappna av 😄 Bra tips där med avgasröret 👍 får se till att ta hem något mindre än 3" bara 😃

[@GamezGames19]

Jag får ett dovt ljud samt vibration mellan 60-90 km/h efter byte 😐 O kardanen kan ju bara sitta på ett sätt så allt sitter som det satt innan. Vad kan det vara?

[@BackmansGarage]

Har hört att flera har fått detta fenomenet från icke volvo orginal stödlager... Jag har ju inte kört min än så jag vet faksiskt inte. En polare till mig sa att han löste sitt problem genom att slipa lite på stödlagerhållargummit så att det blev en luftspalt emellan gummit och den yttre stålringen.

[@GamezGames19]

​@@BackmansGarage Jag har inga såna stålringar i mitt 😅 Kan inte heller hitta nån som säljer. Men hade inte det innan heller. Så det är alltså fel på själva gummit och inte lagret, inte heller ett balansproblem? Men tack jag ska experimentera

Det tog mig 3 minuter att höra att du är svensk. Bra uttal på engelska.

Looks a bit different from the 240 one. I had to cut mine off it was soooooo seized on

[@BackmansGarage]

Yes the 240 one is a bit easier to get to, but like you say, they are also harder to get the bearong off of. I usually pull the rubber off from the bearing and cut off the outer bearing race in two pieces and cut and split the inner ring with a chisel so you can pull it off. I really need to get a 240 for the channel 😃

[@michaelzepeda5785]

so....what can you do if you forgot to mark it? >.>

[@BackmansGarage]

Look for arrows, they should point to echother. Some have paint marks that should align.
