Transmission and doubler are back under the truck. Not completely installed but close. Big thanks to a friend that stopped by and stayed all day!
Got my seat installed.
Its fine.......Everything is fine
that took a while!
Thats what I keep telling my self.
I'm ready enough. Shock shakedown run was good. Rear bump stops didn't fit like I was planning, got some coming in the mail. Might still have time.
Let's see how this works out. My gas gauge doesn't work well, I'm bringing extra fuel lol.
I think my front drive shaft is binding and it won't spin, really don't know what to do at this point.
Call Tom Woods if you have the cash to replace it. They are in Ogden, UT off the interstate and could potentially have a new one ready for you to pick up on the drive down.
Are you sure it’s the driveshaft that is the problem?
The front diff yoke spins and the t case spins freely when the drive shaft is not installed but when drive shaft is installed it won't spin.
Thats some what my plan I'm going to measure it before I leave for work this morning.
There’s not too much that can go wrong with the driveshaft, the front u joint is good? How does the CV joint feel? I’m pretty good at breaking the ball and socket in the CV but it still spins. I would do some more investigating before spending a bunch of money on a drive shaft that might not be bad.
Tom woods is fast.
I bet it's a combination of your new shifter cable you put on and parked on a hill like we talked about. My tcase doesn't like it on a hill.
I think it is, a cap fell off yesterday but I checked and all the needle bearings were still in place. What should I look at? I cant do anything till Friday and I'm running out of time, so I either call Tom's woods and have a spare or just deal with it at BB.
Spare shaft would be nice, but I'm willing to bet money you are fine, maybe replace that u joint or just bring a spare.
I'm going to call the auto parts store today and order a new 1310
