While converting a Porsche 944 into a Rally car, i noticed the transaxle linkage was sloppy, worn-out and very poorly designed. This engineering journal will document the process of designing a new and improved linkage.

In the automotive field, a transaxle is a major mechanical component that combines the functionality of the transmission, the differential, and associated components of the driven axle into one integrated assembly. Front-engine, rear-wheel drive vehicles tend to have the transmission up front just after the engine, but sometimes a front engine drives a rear-mounted transaxle. This is generally done for reasons of weight distribution, and is therefore common on sports cars. Another advantage is that as the driveshaft spins at engine speed, it only has to endure the torque of the engine, instead of that torque multiplied by the 1st gear ratio.

The rally roll cage is complete and the Porsche is now officially a Rally car! Big thanks to Thompson Racing Fabrication for building the most epic roll cage I have ever seen!

Today is the last day that we set our sights on the interior of the 944, continuing to tear it out with reckless abandon! No need to remove the interior gently, as this car is going full-race and never going back! Because racecar!
