AOD upgrades in Tech Zone

Post by hybrid »

Some questions about AOD's have been asked lately in the forums, so I thought I would write up an article based on information I have found during my research into AOD's and the few rebuilds I had to do on my AOD to get it right :mrgreen:

The article is available here:
Content/pa=showpage/pid=24.html

If you have any other mods for the AOD, let me know here and they can be added.

Nice work. G now has more things to do :lol:

Good to see more information going into the tech section. I am still working on my contributions.
I will someday think of something clever to say.

how about mention of the return spring (external) mod that helps return the tv pressure lever back to original position and keeping it consistent?now that you should me how to properly set that cable and if my bracket was more rigid and not flex i dont think i would need that return spring. My pedal is extremely firm and gets harder the more throttle. I can only attribute this to the return spring at the box. Its a good safety thing for me though so i cant be inclined to go WOT so easily! lol :D

Yes a return spring mod is required for the Lokar TV kit as the one it comes with is pathetic.

Yeah good point. We've used them on all custom installs so far.
