Very nice work, I'm impressed. Of course it doesn't take much to impress me . I'm curious to know the width of your rear wheel base. It looks quite substantial even after shortening both axles. That a good thing though as it adds stability. My wife's California Sidecar kit on her 1800 has a 60" rear wheel base and it stays planted on the road with no hint of lifting either wheel in a tight turn at speed.

very nice work, and well thought out. keep the pictures coming

You've done a great job chronicling this build, and it looks to be a fantastic project. It's great of you to share the process and how you have solved the problems.

Can't wait to see more. Have fun in the sun (though I think your mind will still be in the shop ).

if you insist, I'll keep y'all in the loop as Threedom continues to evolve, OK?

ciao fer now!

Ah yes, as a matter of fact we do insist. Keep the pics and reports coming.

What keeps the pre load on the pinion bearings? Did you cut off the threads for the pinion nut? I know it takes alot to mash the crush sleeve between the 2 pinion bearings in that gm rear. I would also be concerned about that eaton governor lock. I don't know how a trike handles but, if one wheel comes of the ground around a turn and turns about 10 more times than the one on the ground, it will violently lock into pause traction mode. That is a tuff set up for off-road but, ify on a trike.

You are doing a great job on this build and I am in no way trying to cause you grief or put down what you are doing. I'm just curious about things.

howdy hydro-R
all those trac- loc style differentials require input torque to "lock up"
I bet the GW motor has little enough torque and the overall light weight will never be enough load to lock it up at all.
IMHO

That one is not a trac loc. I have one just like it in a 08 silverado. You can jack one tire up off ground, turn the driveshaft with your hand and within 10 turns of the tire off ground it will lock solid. Its not a limeted slip unit, it is a full locker when engaged.
