65 x 5:29 x .85 / 37 x 336 = 2,654 rpm's at 65mph

65 x 4:11 x .85 / 28 x 336 = 2,724 rpm's at 65mph

.............................70rpm's :confused:

:hhmm: I'd say difference in rpm is negligible, :confused: must be the 100lbs more per tire? :confused:


Got me......:confused:







alright since all of you hate what i am gonna do to my truck why don't you tell me what i should do? and why i should do it that way.



NO!! :lol:....I thought that was funny :lol: it was in his last post! :lol::lol:

at 70 mph im at somewere around 3grand in 5th im not positive there 529's but im pretty sure. i know for a fact there 5somethins. and i have no idea what the heck you just put... thats chineese to me.
 
wow your finally catching on! thats why im probably just gonna fourlink it with just a dana 44 for now!
 
you'll be the first guy I know that cant run 38's on a mini axle....


you do know the only difference between 37's and 38's in ground clearance, Clarance, is 1/2 an inch, right?


V6 or Hi pinion it, 5:71's, get some wicked shafts annnnnnndddd roll wit it!


(MO)


and FWIW, I've been doing some looking and NO WAY would it cost me 2k for a straight axle swap!

i also said that i will probably just hold off on the engine and do the body work and just put a d44 underneath for now.cause i can get a d44 for free. and i wont have to worry about breakin that with a 3.slow
 
Nothing beats a bunch of money in the bank. You could get a street car and build them both up. Drive one a few months when you do crazy s*** to the other ride, and you have a backup for work and school. Most performance aspects of cars and trucks are mutually exclusive. If the ricers need to be slayed the right tool for the job is a car.

I don't think people hate the idea for the build, they're just curious...
the work adds up quickly.:D:hhmm:

Personally I love having tons of hillbillies and ricers hauling ass past me. Since I started putting in my flatbed it's like I got a rabbit generator.
 
im really not worried about the gears bein matched up... im not really sure but i mean its mud so if i can get them close does it really make a big difference or make a problem because i had a toyota front axle with 529's in it already but my dad sold it and its gonna cost me for another one
 
isn't a 383 just a bigger cam or is it bored out a little? like a thousanth over or somethin like that?

Pal, you just proved my whole point. You don't even know HOW to make the 383, nevermind why you need it. You just want it cause it sounds like it's a cool thing to have. I think you're spending too much time reading the internet.

Invest for your retirement instead. Seriously.
 
hahaha reading the internet? hahaha your funny i definatelly dont read the internet about crap like that. i definatelly did everything that was listed to my truck by myself and actually i did way more than just that too it... read the internet??? ahaha nahh definatelly not

Not to pick on you too much Nick, but you mentioned that you're going to college. You should work on spelling in the meantime. Trust me, it will help.

I'm going to repeat what I suggested about 100 posts ago...

GO PUT THE 383 IN THE TRUCK, COME BACK WITH PHOTOS AND A WRITE-UP.

We will gladly read it and comment at that time. I'm sure we will all be humbled and impressed.

Why the incessant need to convince us that you are doing the right thing?

JUST DO IT!
 
Nevermind.....Do what War just said. I'd like to request video in HD as well as pics though. :popcorn:
 
hahaha in HD? lol are you sure? o and i don't really try to spell correctly on this forum, i mean i do kinda try but its not like its being graded. i spell great when it counts.
 
This is begining to sound a bit kooky. hahaha.

Good luck with the truck , and in life.

Reading on the internet and anywhere else will not be a bad thing for you.

Good luck. Seriously. hahaha :beer:
 
Beginning to sound kooky? Dude, this was kooky 4 pages ago!:grinpimp:

I was hoping the italics [beginning] Wouldn't be too subtle. hahaha

I'm trying real hard.... to walk the path of righteousness. [Jules- Pulp Fiction].....;)

He's in highschool.......:meh:

I was 17 once also... Luckily I wasn't strangled for all the idiotic ideas I had then [ although I probably deserved it].:D
 
Money can be a multiplier for stupidity.....and ,... added to youth. :eek:

Fortunately when I was that age , all I had to worry about was keeping my s*** running , and gettin' laid. Not money. My parents "made" me work for everything I had.

... Speaking in general , not towards anyone. hahaha
