Author: ImranSubhan Since the Lotus Elan S1 was made public in early 1960, it soon became apparent that the drive line will not stand up to vigorous driving, a lot of stories about the fearless driver Elan aground miles away from the workshop with a broken rubber error or metalastic joint, and the change meets the road side is not a way to spend time with your girl friend in the Lotus Elan ... not sireee.
Several different alternatives to replace the failed drive to be prepared, some of them suggested that half of the point, when the universal joint was used in combination with a responsible, thinking of this idea is that with the cushioning effect is presented in a drive while in theory the idea sounds, system is still prone to failure.
Another idea put forward was to use two universal joints and sliding splined yoke to replace the rubber donuts on each half of the shaft, at the beginning of this seems to be the ideal solution, but unfortunately, due to their design, sliding splines to lock in certain conditions, and universal joints to make changes in the speed of rotation, i.e. their acceleration and deceleration moment of each rotation, this phenomenon is called "cyclical fluctuations in speed" is only for the universal joints, where they worked for more than a few degrees from the center line, which they, of course, will depend on when the work in the background transmission line from the Lotus Elan, the movement of the rear suspension travel will make a few degrees of movement on both Bump and rebound. Moments of cyclic variations occur in milliseconds, but the phenomenon may prove unsatisfactory in the drive in the Lotus Elan.
At constant velocity joint is designed so that when the angle of the disc varies, the balls are always located at the halfway point within the joint. This excludes the cyclic fluctuations in speed above that a universal joint produces at work on a few degrees from the center, if the angle of operation encompasses far, UJs will have a tendency to lock.
A rubber boot that keeps grease and pollutants from defending constant velocity (CV) joints. CV joints require only periodic maintenance or lubrication; they are made to last 100,000 miles (160,000 km) or more.
The initial cost of conversion of Lotus Elan in CV drive system is high, but the initial cost is fully offset by the long-term maintenance and replacement of donuts.
In elantrikbits CV drive shaft system produces 100% reliability, because the system is well developed and, as you know, give many years of uninterrupted work.
Another important factor to consider when installing solid CV drive shaft in the Lotus Elan is the simplicity of installation, as well as a system will require the removal of old intermediate shafts and donuts, the new system simply offered to internal and external drive flanges, the normal tools and spanners all that is needed to tension up high tensile fixing.
If the drive shaft kit you require anything other than ordinary tools for installation, and requires the dismantling of the rear suspension of your Elan, the total cost of installation would be much higher than the original cost because of the need to pay for the services of a professional installation engineer.
