You have seen the Phantom Grip for cars haven't you?

I don't see why any competent machinist couldn't "duplicate" this on a smaller scale to work on the Yamaha diff's. I would mind having one myself. All it does is add spring pressure to "load" the spider gears in the diff, essentially creating a locking diff. I know of a buddy that ran one in his Honda that he use to race (not my first choice for car or for diff) but a cheap option.

That looks interesting but wow it is pricey.

i wish somebody would make one. my dads g2 has alot of trouble with just one wheel turning, and we have alot of trouble climbing hills and stuff with it like that...

Anyone have a diff assembly just sitting that could be used to design one from? I am sure I could draw it up and I have a top notch machine shop at my finger tips.

Xtreme Fartz has a few EZGO differentials lying around. You may be able to buy one of those.

hey guys. little update. i was able to get some work done on my engine today. took off the head and my piston and valves were covered with black residue. so i cleaned em all up to look brand new, threw in a new spark plug and wala! no problems with the engine anymore, runs like a champ! i will let you design one for my rearend rhussjr, where you located?

rhussjr · 11-08-2007, 08:25 AM

I am located in the Charlotte, NC area. I have already spoken to one of my guys about the idea and once I have an assembly to design from, I can get it into a dxf format and a prototype unit made. Whoever donates a rear end will be the one to get to the first one made. How many cars share the same rear trans / diff unit as the G2/G9's (be it Yamaha or other...)?
