CR26E naming for the tripod inserts.
See the CV Insert entry.
No part-specific design process is documented. The DriveTrain subsystem design process applies: 1. Set gearing from the tractive force diagram, top speed and the event speeds actually seen (autocross top speed 69 mph, endurance 72 mph, gear-limited top speed 82 mph). 2. Design the carriers non-adjustable with a fixed pin, integrated with the engine pins, to reduce assembly complexity and failure points and remove the need for weld-on carrier mounts on the frame. 3. Analyse the carriers at acceleration and deceleration load cases with a 2.0 shock loading factor. CR26I LH carrier at 39 lb-ft with shock: 32.949 ksi peak von Mises, minimum FoS 1.211, 0.013 in average axial bearing bore deflection. RH carrier: 9.432 ksi, FoS 4.229, 0.001 in. 4. Set the half shaft length with a custom measuring jig so the tripod travel range cannot be exceeded, then groove for retaining rings. 5. Validate on track and by inspection of the wear surfaces after testing.
Machined, then bonded or welded into the parent part.
440C stainless steel, heat treated.
