6-Gear Slipper Eliminator?

Post by LTO_Dave »

Can anyone tell me if the available slipper eliminators will fit a stock 6-gear tranny and top shaft?

Most say they fit a Stealth, but I want to know if any fit the 6-gear.

I'm looking at this one from Dynotech:

i think that would be an engineering marvel to produce something like that for the 6 gear tranny. because you have the diff tube, and the pinion that sits atop, working in harmony. the diff tube is the key part. if someone could produce a tube with the eliminator ears for the spur, eliminating the slipper, that would be great.

i think the tranny wouldn't last, unless you're running the car on an oval. rebuilding the tranny more often.

by the way, if you're looking into getting a slipper eliminator look at speedy's racing products. he has an awesome one. much less material than the one you have up .

You would loose you differential in a six gear if you were able to eliminate it.

Thanks for the help.

I just bought a 6-gear car but haven't had a chance to remove the spur and check it out.

This will probably be for a shelfer and occasional carpet oval runner, so the diff adjustment isn't important. It's mainly for looks.

I have the Dynotech eliminator on my carpet LX-T and love it.
