Wanted: stock 6MT accumulator

Edit: got one coming, stay tuned!

Looking to design up an elegant ADM solution but want a stock one to work from. Anyone have one they pulled taking up space in the garage?

 

I think there’s a few floating around. I sent mine to @tonered to chop up

 

Darn, could have just brought it with on Saturday!

 

Sorry! I'm gonna swap it in soon!

I will have a brake line available though. LoL!

 

I do prototype work and am currently in engineering school - I'm always looking for better solutions. Plan is to make a bolt in "dummy" accumulator with proper threads and a straight through flow. Remove stock accumulator, replace it with the ADM, and boom...no leaks and a normal clutch. I can send one to whoever gets me their OEM one once I get it worked out. It'll work just like the brake line in theory, but I think it will be a bit more elegant.

 

A couple people have had the same idea and I think it was abandoned due to the need for a seat for the flare to seal on. I don't remember what the stock accumulator had, but I vaguely remember someone may have said they have pressed in steel or brass seats? Obviously you could use some kind of adapter, but then you're basically back where a lot of us are anyway.

By no means am I trying to deter you, but the cost may outweigh the benefit of having a "stealth" accumulator delete. Especially when you can just dremel out the stock one to accomplish the same thing.

 

I haven't pulled mine off yet if I get to it in the next few days I'll get back at you

 

That's exactly why I want to get hands on an OEM one without having to disable my truck. I have access and abilities on some pretty sweet equipment and can likely manufacture these reasonably - but we'll see once I have an accumulator in my hands.

 

If you still need one mine's wasting valuable storage space in my 1 car garage. Let me know!

 

Got one coming, thanks everyone!

 

Any updates @JeffsJeep04 ?

 

Noting major...located the brass inserts, so that solves my one hiccup. Just need some free time!
