    Anyone Ever Rent an Enclosed Trailer?

    i recently bought a 16x 7.5 enclosed trailer to move and store my 1930 model A. ~2000lbs. It is a tight squeeze, but it did fit. Thake it for what it's worth, I drive a 2014 Chevy 1500 and wouldn't do it with anything less. Brake controler and good tie downs are a must. Wind resistance is...

    Torque steer issues

    What do your drivers side control arms/ bushings look like? If they are loose and the drivers side tire moves backwards under acceleration and forward under braking, but the passenger side does not, it may feel like torque steer. The new tighter steering may just be amplifying an issue that you...

    06 gmc sierra 1500 transmission help 4l60e

    Im looking for a little bit of information on the transmission in my 06 gmc sierra 1500, and I was hoping you all might have a little insight. Some wheel spin going out the driveway in the snow the other day seems to have taken out 3rd and 4th gear. When in D or 3 the truck acts like it is in...

    SYE, driveshafts, and AX-15 manual

    I am running the AA kit with an ax-15 and a front shaft from a grand cherokee. I do not remember what combination year/ engine/ transmission it came off of, but it was listed on ebay as 32.5" collapsed length. I am running it with an 8.8, which has a pinion length close to the 8.25. I believe...

    Timing chain ate my stroker?

    Yeah, thanks everyone, but I got it figured out. The original builder installed the rear expansion plug too deep. It caused the cam to rub on the plug, and stick out the front of the block about 1/8th of an inch. This caused misalignment of the timing chain, which tore itself apart and killed my...

    Timing chain ate my stroker?

    I bought my stroker about 3 years and 15k miles ago. I got it as a long block, so until now I had never been inside it. A month ago I started to suspect it was developing a rod knock under load. Last week it got significantly louder, and I decided it was time to pull the engine. After gutting...

    Hybrid cage build thread

    Looking forward to seeing the halo welded to the drip rail. Been dreaming of something similar, but haven't ever seen it done. Everything looks great. I love the extra attention keeping the tube work tight to the body. Looks very clean. Lightfoot

    Another Death Wobble thread. I'm stumped.

    Tightening down LCA bushings while the rig is jacked up can contribute to death wobble. It loads the rubber bushings when you drop it to ride height.

    How To: Build your own 4.0L turbo Cummins (Beware...170+ pics)

    I was guessing you either worked there, or shared a shop. I live only about a mile up route one so I see your jeep pretty often flexed out on the hill. The wheels give it away. This was the first time I really got to hear the turbo though. Very cool. Out of curiosity, if you could manage to fit...

    How To: Build your own 4.0L turbo Cummins (Beware...170+ pics)

    Saw you blast out of the light on Terry lake and College a couple days ago and it made me very happy inside. Its definitely making me debate between going LS swap or turbo stroker. Rig looks great with the bumpers back on. Lightfoot

    Stutters off idle/ under accelleration

    I Started having issues after some wheeling last weekend. The jeep wouldnt start unless i put my foot on the gas so i swapped out the iac. Everything seemed better, i drove the jeep and had no issues. The next day i washed it and wiped down the engine bay with a wet rag to clean up some mud. The...

    Swaybar with OTK DOM steering

    http://www.teraflex.biz/dana-30-swaybar-mounts-pair.html You could try something like this that welds to the inner c's. If you do go with the notch, make sure to reinforce it more than you think you will need to. Otherwise the mount will bend out and hit your steering. I sheared off a jks mount...

    add-a-leafs with lifted leaf springs?

    It's hard to say exactly what height you would end up with, but if it is too high you could always remove a leaf. Shackle relocation brackets may add too much lift depending on your goal, but a longer shackle would definitely do the trick if your still on stock ones. The ride with AAL's is rough...

    Removing a leaf from RC leaf pack

    I did something similar when I added shackle relocation brackets. If i remember right, i took out the second shortest and third shortest leaves and replaced them with the ones from a stock pack. This softened the ride a bit, and leveled things out. It looks like you may run into a problem with...
