Well i got shocked again today, And it was the worst one out of the three times i been shocked grabbing the Dist cap, then i talked my brother into grabbing just for laughs, Looks pretty funny to see somone else get shocked lol, But the rubber gromet that goes between coil and cap was some how folded causing it to ground out, and shock the [censored] outa me, we fixed that, timed it, Adjusted the valves, and i can ACTUALLY FEEL power, omg it feels good i havent been in a good mood for over a week because of this, I dont think i will light my truck on fire now, I get 5:13's and a detroit in the rear, heres another questoin, are 5:13's too low? will my pinion be too weak? im running 39.5's. Thx for everyone who responded to my earlier post,
 
good to hear. let me know when your ready to go play. I would talk to Darrel about the gear strength. he told me that the 5.13's are still very strong in the 1 ton running gear.
 
i think it would be ok in th 1 ton setups also.. much bigger gears to work with... a dana 44 might be scary with that gearing... /forums/images/icons/shocked.gif /forums/images/icons/confused.gif /forums/images/icons/crazy.gif
 
ouch, d60 needed for sure. sorry our call didnt cure the prob, but glad you found it. /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
 
heh you helped me man, i did that paper thing and it sucked in a little, so we did the valves, but when you called i was in a real bad mood cuz my truck was running like a POS< Thx for taking the time to call thats cool....... ;] Cassidy my truck will be going in on thursday to get the rearend done, then i will do a little more saving and get the front done towards the end of this month or the middle of next month,

i havent looked in my profile for awhile heh, that was written abuot 4 months ago, i have never had 4;88s i have 3;73 now....... and Cassidy told me that he wished he had gone to 5;13's so i just took his adviceits driven on the street, and i have to drive it to wheelin spots as i dont have a flat bed to tow it on, i dont need to drive fast 55 is fine for me
