*TO ANYONE WATCHING THIS, I MISREAD MY DIAL FOR TEN THOUSANDTHS INSTEAD OF THOUSANDTHS, PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK YOUR INDICATION DIAL BEFORE FINALIZING ADJUSTMENTS!*

You are truly a blessing dude thank you for this video

[@GutZ_47]

Dude thank you! Just tryin to share any juicy tidbits of knowledge or info that I learn. Btw if you have any issues with your spool install, you can always reach out to weir directly and spence will help you out with any questions!

I just got out of work and saw this notification and immediately just exploded

[@GutZ_47]

i swear i thought i replied to this! but hell yeah brother, ill have another update on the tercel next week!

[@slow_carsgarage7422]

Had a weir spool with the sr5 axle. Took a beating with the 4AC clutch dumps and all. Swapped in a 4age 20v blacktop and one pull it broke off the teeth on the ring gear.

[@GutZ_47]

Yeah man I've heard plenty of horror stories about these sr5s. I have a spare ra64 Celica rear end, which I hear is basically an open diff, brake drum gts rear axle. I'm gonna throw a weir spool in this one and also convert it to disc Incase this one shits itself

[@thatjdmkid8170]

Can you add links to the spool and is this for bigger axels ? I’d like to make my diff solid no slip but I’m new to the game!

[@mikehawk2245]

Are new pinion gears or shims and all that good stuff required when putting in the spool? Or can I get away with reusing all that stuff, about to start the process on my spool as well.

[@GutZ_47]

These differentials dont use shims, the actual bearing housing threads in and you align your backlash with them. its pretty simple if you have a dial and marking grease. i think youll be fine, just dont throw a ls1 behind it ;)

[@mikehawk2245]

I-O GARAGE i’m just gonna be running a 16v so i think it should handle, also thanks for the info!!

[@GutZ_47]

@@mikehawk2245 you should be good! sr5 axles DO NOT like the torque applied from clutch kicks, so theyll snap easy. especially if they have a ridiculous amount of heat cycles on them. for autox and just spirited driving theyll be able to handle fine! just make sure you run redline or ams oil for ur diff!

[@Chiintoo69]

Imma do this to my te72, tired of welding them xD

[@JuanmaSantos-c6j]

o you. I'm trying to get in touch with Weir Performance and they don't answer emails. I need some axels that I bought from them a few years ago. I write to you from Spain. Could you give me some information? very thankful

[@fuzzman4103]

Hows the sr5 handling the rebuild?

[@GutZ_47]

dude, ive stayed away from the project for over a year. i finally got a quick rack in from t3, so im gonna start kickin it back in and trying to get this thing on the road before summer!

[@LRT604]

I watched the video where you made the disc conversion.. great vid btw. Are you upgrading the spool and axles to make it like a gts?

[@GutZ_47]

Unfortunately due to the diff size, there's no mods I can do to give it the strength of a gts. If you can find a rear end from a ra64 celica, those are essentially the same diff and axle size as a gts, just without lsd and disc brake. This conversion works for both.

[@LRT604]

@@GutZ_47 I'm swapping a sr5 rear end to my car. I'm doing the rear disc brake swap. And I might do this spool. I'm only looking to make 180 to 220 hp top. I guess that's all I will need

[@GutZ_47]

@@LRT604 oh man, just don't get crazy with clutch dumps or doing burnouts/drifts. I've read on forums of these breaking under stock 4age power. As long as your not abusive it should work.

@@GutZ_47 I'm not drifting the car. Maybe a parking lot fun slide but nothing major. This is my weekend toy. Highway pull and backroads warrior. Nothing crazy

[@thatjdmkid8170]

What he do wot the axels ?

[@JosrRocks]

Did you sell your ae86?

[@MultiStreetfigter]

What do you use to remove the ring off the lsd?

[@GutZ_47]

you askin about the ring gear? i had to bend back all the tabs on the bolt retainer and i just tapped it out with a deadblow.

[@MultiStreetfigter]

@@GutZ_47 your right I just had to hit it out im good now thanks

[@crgkid31]

You should get a ultrasonic cleaner for all the greasy ass parts! They’re cheap on eBay, shit pays for itself

[@GutZ_47]

Damn, they are cheap, thanks for the callout ima have to pick one up 🤠
