My rear axle's pinion bearing is going out, I was able to tighten the nut like a quarter of an turn. And the pinion seal is leaking.
Looks like the rear axle is coming apart. Dammit, should of did that when I was in there in the first place.
On another note, I will have to talk to Georg about...
Looks like I am going to have to think about my next step. I like the sound of the Orion, but I just need to make sure there will be no interference with my trans pan. Is the new case is slightly bigger? The nosecone comes real close to my tranny. I am using a small u-joint on my companion...
Yeah! Shread those gears. Drivin it like I stole it. Haha.
It is a 6.0 chevy vortec motor with a 4L65E and a 3sp Tcase.
Its always much more fun to go fast in something that wasn't meant to be.
The only problem I would see changing it to a splitcase would be the fit. As of now the 3sp looks...
After doing the motor and trans swap in my 40, I have noticed the whine and I could feel it through the floor shifter for the T-Case. I was thinking something was wrong with it, but I just kept driving it. I have been pretty hard on it lately because I just wanna unleash the beast with all the...
Thats gonna be a really close call to make. I need to work the bugs out on the TCU. I need to be able to drive it there and back and mosh it out in the dunes. Maybe..
Yeah I'm the owner of the 40, my brother is the owner of the pick-up, but he has me doing the work. Lucky me.:rolleyes: So one day we can trail ride together.:cool:
The output shaft has been fixed. I was able to thread it to a 3/4 by 16 pitch, then out a grade 8 nut on it, hammered out the cover a bit rtv and the gasket, tightend bolts, done deal.
Now to finish the exhaust system. Both Toys need the exhaust worked on,
Its been some time now, I've got it running smoother. I ended up getting a NEW but BAD pres. reg, so that had to be replaced again, but in the time it took me to figure that out I made my own flowrate resistor tester and tested the flow rate on all the injectors. Every one was good. Checked the...
The timing is something I should of checked already. But I haven't. I want to get a new timing belt on it for sure, but I dont want to fawk it up if I try do that myself.
One day this truck will have the SAS done, But I highly doubt 3 or 4 linking this rig would happen.
After all these things...
Update
I finally figured out the starting problem with regard to the starter relay for the M/T. The ignition switch supplys the power to the relay coil as well as powering the starter solenoid. The coil alone draws alot of current, giving the solenoid less juice. SO on the number 4 pin coming...
Trac Bar continued...
Well I finally got it all finished and put a couple of coats of rattle can on it.
Thanks to everyone else with their designs which I tryed to mimic.
Next thing to do would be the rest of the exhaust system.
