Jrock's BuildUp

[Tallchevy]

I NEED A WELDER! POO!  

I have a welder  

[jrock]

Next time I'm there, it's going home with me

[jrock]

Progress...? Yes. 

Vented rotors... check

Large calipers... check (left)

IFS axle... check

Longs and hubs.... ohhhhhh yeahhhhhhhhhh 



More to come. 

[jrock]

This carrier went in the front. How bad is this?

Get your truck together and lets go wheelin. I got the next couple weeks off..

Holy , your pionion is wayyy too deep.

Just run it till it breaks, If you "fix" it your gears will have to pretty much break in again. Taking even more hard surface material off the gears and making them even weaker.

I got this third out of a front axle I bought. I've looked all over the gears in it and they look terrific. Are these grooves going to majorly weaken the carrier?

Your so bloody far way now!

So my build didn't come off without a hitch... I think I messed up the rear pinion angle. I get a bad vib in the truck above 55mph. Sort of like the square DS is spinning. I need to measure the angles again.

That's why you were so far behind last night when driving back from the trail!
Got to say that your rig was impressive lastnight.. like the saying is, (its all in the driver)
Oh yea dont let me forget that you have my angle finder when ever your done with it.. No rush.

[jrock]

haha. Thank you very much. That trail was fun. We should race

PS. We have to make your tires fit!
PSS. You'll have it back on Shop Night. Thank you for letting me borrow it.

basically felt that they were racing to the top, untill someone had to let their motor cool from having a weak fan clutch.. lol
yea this shopnight im going to clearance the rear fenders.

[jrock]

hahaha, SO true. Who the heck was that black pickup having all the problems...? Hmmmmmmmm?

[Gixxer Jon]

oh by the way! you shouldnt of taken the by-pass at the end of the trail. Wait i understand you were stuck behind a jeep and wanted to get to the top... lol jk jk

I know. I should really learn to be more patient. Practice practice practice!

[Gixxer Jon]

      Have you had the chance to go through those photos that you took lastnight?

that wasn't racing, that was cruzing down the trail.  it would be fun to do some time trials up that though.  if i didn't overheat every time i went up a hill it would be nicer.  gotta figure out now if i want to run an electric fan or mechanical.  took thefan clutch off last night and it really doesn't seem bad.  i think the radiator having all the fins corroded could have somthing to do with the clutch not warming up enough to grab.  now i need to save for a radiator.

let me know when you want to take the drive line in.  it wouldn't be a bad idea to pull your cv off the front and add it to the back(being its your daily driver).  i know a guy here in town that will give you deal on getting it done.  just talked to him today.

[jrock]

That would be a great idea seeing as my rear drivle line is bent... and it's heavy wall! (It has been like this for months until Superyota noticed it, I coundn't tell from driving it) I may just build another. I have a spare 85 front DS sitting around collecting dust.

[jrock]

Front pinion is leaking bad! More fixing!

what are you doing on the computer, your supposed to be at my house working on your truck.  i'm guessing your off work already

[Gixxer Jon]

   Well looks like i know what we are doing tomorrow....  

I went and got the steel to finish the half doors since its so stinking hot!  

P.S. Got the wheel spacers today... No more leaf rubbing.  

[gtoyonrocks]

I'd just run that third member till it breaks. I don't know how many carriers I have put tracks accross like that.

[jrock]

For $11 I replaced the seal. I hate leaking! It's bad on so many levels.

I found out that my crush sleeve is toast and my flange is too. Great! Luckily it's in the front.

I was leaving work

[jrock]

I got new to me shocks. 10" stroke. Plus, I picked up shock hoops for the front and 12" stroke Bilsteins.

10s in the back, 12s in the front.

I've now bought and received rims for my 37s. 15x8 3.75BS black steelies. Mounted two tonight. Rest tomorrow.

[superyota]

did the 37's fit, or did you have to do some clearancing?  post up some pics.  i wanna see!

[jrock]

Not on yet. I need to mount two more and then see. Tomorrow!


Mount = tire on rim. Not on truck yet
