Unsprung Timeline:
hubs x2
will dedicate all my time to this 11/13 onwards after i grind out frame pucks
cam done w/ endmills ordered 11/8 - @Harshit Dalmia
IF WE GET SHOP ACCES ON 11/15
First hub turned by 11/15
harder bc needs to be precise asf for bearing seating, which is done on lathe
combustion letting us borrow internal micrometer for this (only me/harshit as of rn)
2nd hub turned by 11/17 by latest 11/18
first CNC done on 11/19 afternoon
second CNC done on 11/21 or 11/22 workday
axles x2
andrew to teach this / prob do himself for one of them at least i think, like he does one while teaching and then watches as sumi / diego does the other one
start 11/10 learning single point therading (idk if andrew has done this yet)
hopefully done by 11/11 bc this will also determine how long the thread relief needs to be based on skill level tbh, and longer one means marginally longer axle so yeah
axles currently BLOCKED by upright sim, so need to get sims done ASAP
hubnuts x2
mcmaster :/
uprights x2
sent out day the axles r done w/ bore’s dimensioned to how the axles’s turned out IRL
caliper mount
can do in house, but lowkey just send w/ upright order
pickup
can do in house but lowkey just sent w/ upright order
steering mount
can do in house but lowkey just send w/ upright order
front rotors x2
sent out 11/6
rear rotors x1
sent out 11/6
Steering Timeline:
column tubes:
all look to be 1” OD and probably already bought the nomal ID as well (i hope)
drilling holes will take like 2 hours for all colmuns
column inserts:
will be hard to drill holes into but not the worst
4130 so will be a hot sec to make on lathe but can do all in workay (I did one in < 1 hour in may)
u-joints
if no come with holes, will take a bit to workhold + edgefind + drill holes for ujoints. maybe a workday thing
bearing housing
idk how the stock is ordered for this. is it already nominal?
grooving takes long time bc you need to indicate the rotary table + make an insert to indicate the part
i will explain this more in person but this will take like a workday
we should do this when we have the upper ca same time so we can ask jamie if we can leave the rotary table setup for a long period of time (a few day) so we don’t need to re-indicate every time
pillow blocks
scs, then post-machine holes
should take a few hours
clevis/rack stop
honestly oursource from jiga, we would need to CNC to get all those fillets w/ ball nose endmill, and the countersink is a pain, also the curved part on the inside is hard to do bc you need to sideways cut w/ an endmill
tire rods
size up to an OD you can buy and then tapping + helicoiling should not take more than an hour total
Suspension:
bell crank plates:
scs w/ new load cases locked in
pushrods: size to nearest od you can but and then tapping + helicoiling takes < 1 hour
upper apex: outsource
lower apex: scs, bore out hole w/ shoulder, groove
need to redesign to have NO step down (bigger upper ca tube)
needs locating feature for the tubes for welding
rear shock cup:
i think bc of the weird ass curve u need to make more contact to the shock you need to outource (if its still like this)
Trailing Arm:
need inserts done
can’t scs this thick so you need a way of getting the cirves, maybe just grind if its not that deep? if so then jiga
also you need to then bore again for step down then groove for ret ring
momo
outsource as soon as t-arm is passing
