Thread: ZZP diff squirter

Yeah one-wheel-peels are fun in high school, just not good for your daily driver that you DONT want to break! One of the local cars that I built a few years back gets its share of rough treatment and lots of very harsh burnouts and many of them being one wheel marks for well over a hundred feet at a time. A year or so back we had the drivetrain out for some engine work and to install a 3.29 single chain conversion and the diff was still like new. The car has over 135K one it and is the original diff and again it had tons of one wheel burnouts. He has been using my fluid mix since I built the trans 3 years ago and has definately proven its worthiness in differential longevity.

Yeah that was the picture that I saw like 2 years ago on clubgp.

Why not disconnect one end of that soft line, install a T or something, maybe with a line that is 1/8 - 3/16" dia., use another soft line to connect the other end of the T back up to the hard line and then just route the T over to where the squirter is going.

I mean, wouldnt that be easier? It seems, to me anyway, that it would most certainly be easier for the 'home mechanic' such as myself that doesnt have access to brazing tools.

Why not just use AN fittings or swagelock fittings which really easily hold up to the low pressure.

Dave,
What is this special fluid mix you are talking about?? I would love to use it as I have seen too many spider gear failures seizing to the diff pin.
