Torsen T-2 CAD model

[Aaron Buchok]

Hey,

Does anyone have a Cad Model of a Torsen T-2 diff? I would like to get a head start on some of the math and a CAD file would be a great asset while I'm waiting to get a Torsen T-2 to take my measurments from.

If you have one please e-mail it to buchok@ou.edu.


Thanks,

By the way.... I use Pro/E and solidworks, so eather of those file formats would be great.

Thanks in advance,

your icon looks like the a cross between some alfred hitchcock movie cover and the guy who plays "stuart" on MAD TV.

thats just for the torsen 1 isnt it

[jack]

the 012000 is the type 2, and the M021DHU is for the type 1.

[Marshall Grice]

Are you sure about that?

"Type 1 (T-1) University Special (012000), the assembled unit cost is $495.00 each."

T-2's are out of miata's or rav4's.

also from torsens' site,
"We cannot supply a drawing for any other differential other than the University Special"

My understanding is that the the 012000 and M021DHU are both T1 type diffs. They use a crossed axis gear setup. I think the major difference between those two is the housing itself. The 012000 has a 1 piece housing while I believe the old DHU has a 2 piece housing.

The T2 diff uses a parallel axis gear design and is not offered directly by Torsen for FSAE teams.

[Brian Smith]

You guys are right. The T2 is from a miata or rav4. The T2 gear axis are all parallel.

"At the present, the Type 1 University Special is the only differential and drawing that we can supply to FSAE teams. While this may change in the future, a team wishing to use a Type 2 must currently go to a junkyard or a car dealer's parts counter. We cannot supply a drawing for any other differential other than the University Special" -Torsen.com FSAE FAQ

Have any teams ever tried to make a full aluminum housing T2?

oops, my bad. i was think of type one and two of the type 1. yeah.
