Re: diff and skelly
Thats how the SEco GTP cars came. Dual brakes and a skellenger diff inside. They were really just a conversion kit for the Raco GTP. They never sold the stuff. Only had 3 shop cars.
Here is one of them...

Re: diff and skelly
Jay probably did. The housing that the rear bolts to is just used on zenoah engines, but needs to be machined to bolt to the rear. He used Delara brakes, but they did not originally come with those. There was a member on here that made one of these cars to look like mine. He had the brackets and everything made for it. I suspect he had more made and probably sold them. I had the car here that he made to look like this and it was definately not right, not to mention it was sold as a rebuild not a replica. My buddy was not happy.
I am sure jays will be MUCH better than the original based on his past projects

Re: diff and skelly
It would... Skellenger actually made a whole setup including A arms for a independent rear with their QC mounted in it. It was originally designed for use in the super mod 2, but in theory could be bolted up to any type of standard raco platform. It was a neat unit. I had a couple, but sold them over the years. Kinda regret it a small bit now, but i just did not see myself changing any of the current raco cars i had.

Re: diff and skelly
