Managed to get a little work done on the car this weekend. I looked at various pulleys to drive the alternator off the prop and found an alloy saxo underdrive one that looked to be about right. I had thought about boring it and pushing it on over the nose of the diff but it wasn't quite large enough for that. So I decided to machine it and put it on the front of the diff which would also act as a spacer for the prop seeing as the new gearbox is a little shorter than the old one.
So I machined up 2 discs of alloy and pushed them into the pulley so it was back to a flush face either side. Then machined the one side with a 4mm nose to sit into the input flange of the diff.
The other side got machined to take the 100mm cv joint of the propshaft.
Then I machined the centre to take the plunge of the cv joint and drilled the holes.
So with that done I dropped the subframe off the car and set about mounting up the alternator. I welded a couple of bits to the diff mount which stiffen it up and also hang the alternator off. I welded them on wide so the alternator needs shimming so it can be lined up perfectly. Did a bit of trimming to the subframe to get more swing on the alternator. Just need a belt and a rose jointed link to tension it now and its done.
Should be back down on its wheels pretty soon then a big clean up for Ultimate dubs!

it seems that the only ones 01E boxes with wide first and flexible shaft are all CRB from RS2´s ,lates CGR´s from ABY engines and Diesel boxes like DPJ/DQT.

I finally sorted out some pictures of the work before the show. It was a mad rush to get the car ready for the show, I just managed it with a few late nighters.
Got the alternator finished off and mounted under the car.
Whilst I was under there I connected up the rear diff lock.
Mounted the oil cooler for the gearbox, tucked up nicely out of the way.
Finally I had to do a little machining to the brake bells and brackets to get them to fit with the S2 running gear as its different to the quattro stuff:
Managed to get a pair of 3" dishes for the E50's so on the look out for another pair and then I will get them split down and built up.
A few pictures from the show. As you can see the S2 running gear has narrowed the track which will make it easier to fit the new E50's with wider dishes.
Doing a few final jobs to the car to get it ready for a run out next weekend to do a little testing which should be fun!
