Gergwheel1647545492 Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 That thing is awesome!!! can't believe they used Typhoon parts though, seems like their would be better options with todays market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're Polish so that's all they have, and maybe old Cold War era military shit but it was too heavy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99StockGT Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Great to see at least part of the platform still being used over there. I'm sure the Ty that the drivetrain came out of had one hell of an interesting life before it gave up the organs. As a Sy/Ty member since 1992 the stories of those trucks in the "Eastern Block" areas have been beyond entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeto67 Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 That thing is awesome!!! can't believe they used Typhoon parts though, seems like their would be better options with todays market. supposedly the typhoon/syclone viscous coupling transfer case is pretty stout and can handle up to 1000 hp. The thing about a viscous coupling transfer case is that it is directing the power load, it isn't under the pressure of the full load like an automatic trans is. The down side to them is there is literally no aftermarket and rebuilds cost a grand or more. They used the same transfer case in awd Safari/astro vans and S-series based bravadas (1990-1997) so they aren't "rare" and may actually be available overseas in more common numbers (the bravada was exported to europe). Summit used a similar setup in their 1990's project car "the quadra-deuce" an awd 1932 highboy roadster. The advantage of the Ty/Sy TC is that it bolts to the back of many of the stout GM v-8 transmissions like TH400s, 700R4s, 4l60Es,etc...so you don't need fancy adapter kits. And it's mechanical and rear bias (35% front, 65% rear). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
