This page shows one way to fit an overdrive to a Jup.
The cross-member between the battery boxes needs to be cut and some supports
welded onto the chassis.
Some
additional 'fitting' to allow speedo drive to enter battery box
and
cutting of the floor and shaping of the floor support is needed.
The centre support rubbers were changed to suspension metalastics welded into
the holes where the rubbers should go.
A
prop shaft from a Reliant Robin was used.
It
needs grinding away since the angle of travel is great since it is so short. The
setup survived Marathons across the Sahara even at full yump though I did fit a
restraining rope to prevent full bounce travel.
The adapters and reconditioning
of the OD unit were done by OD Spares, Coventry +44-1203 543686. Disclaimer:
