Did you manage to find a source for the flanges?

type 2 and 930 conversions flanges are readily available from empi.
original version of the type 1 are hard to get new. version 2 type 1 flanges with the tapper seal are readily available. Looking into how to seal those on an outlander gearbox. may just put the seal on the stub shaft

some updates:

doing a small batch of outlander rear stub shaft adapters. much like the leaf ones, they'll have the 33 vw spline so the 90mm and 100mm flanges will fit.

100mm flanges will fit on the outlander gearbox, theres just a plugged coolant port on the motor that will need to be shaven down for clearance.


9 sets should be available by the end of june!

at some point ill pickup the front outlander motor and generator and prob them on the cnc, as having adapter plates for those make much for sense than for the rear motor. as the stub shafts are a better option for the rear.

bmw, subaru, toyota, chevy adapter plates are available(on request), and will have some in stock shortly.
all have the nema b-face bolt pattern so universal motor options, including the leaf and outlander.

a new batch of em57 and em61 adapter plate should be available end of june aswell!
much love for the em61 leaf motors, there should be plenty available in wrecking yards.

Bratitude, Are you still making your earlier versions of the adapter plate with a stub shaft and angular contact ball bearing on the leaf output? Adapting to a VW type 1 clutch and some pictures of your earlier adapters I've seen had this configuration. Thanks!

no, as i dont really support clutch based conversions. direct drive to the gear box or using the leaf gear box is a much better option.

yew! finally the outlander rear motor drive shaft adapters are done!



33vw beetle spline on the outer end, so works with stock 90mm beetle flanges, as well as EMPI 100mm and 108mm(930) conversion flanges (some minor shaving of the motor case is required for the larger flanges to fit on the motor side)

cold rolled out of 4140 chromoly steel, so they are stronger than the stock outlander stubs.

available in the webshop https://bratindustries.net/product/outl ... -adapters/

thanks to a few different people i used both mine and their measurements for the suabru to land on this adapter plate, shoot out to Zapatero, he helped confirm some of the numbers for the bolt holes. so its open for public use!
