Yea there was a huge wreck north bound at about 12:15 on our way. We saw it and there was an old F-100 smashed to :pokinit: then way across the lanes almost on the railroad tracks there was a newer 4 door chevy 1500 that looked like it got hit by a train with a little ford taures under it. Some people died in that wreck for sure.

We got bypass directions from CJ at the shop and didn't hit 99 till Merced. That was kinda tight.

Got a little bit done today.  :pirate:

I spent yesterday painting the parts.

Time to get to work this morning




Given the fact that I have two mounts now, I decided to put the heavy duty 4x4Inovations one in the rear and the stock tcase mount in the front position.  My theory was that the 4.7's are in the rear and that is where more of the torque will be.  :dunno: If that is correct or not.  I'll let ya'll know.



Then it was time for the hole.  (huh huh, I sthaid hole)  A couple of pilot holes, A 2 1/2" hole saw, and then a little dremmeling.






All cleaned up.


Of course right as I torqued the Crossmember bolts down, i realized i didn't leave room for the shifter base bolts.  :hahaha:  O well my first time. :gap:

My new D-line measurements are
Front:  31 1/2"

Rear:   4'

Drive Lines will go to South Bay this week. :thumbs:

If you don't mind me asking; what did they charge you? They quoted me $150 when I was calling around for Dave...

If you do mind, just say penguin.

Ya i think so.  to be honest, i was expecting it to be around $300.    But i think the economy has something to do with that right now.

OK so it's somewhere in the 215:1 (I cannot find the calculator)  :dunno:

I had to re-clearance the floor board for the twin stick base this morning.  the FROR was just a bit wider.  Otherwise everything went smooth today.

As requested (probably so you can secretly make fun of me in public) here is the Dorky :moon: video of my first Double low.  :hyper:

no walking the crawler? :joke:

BTW: trans(3.93)*crawlbox(2.28)*tcase(4.7)*diffs(???)=crawl ratio

ie; 5.15*2.28*4.7*4.7*5.29=1372:1 :thumbs: (Marlin's Truck)
