The Bent77 K10 now tow pig

[Bent77]

I like being 5' 9", that's like 69" tall

I'm sure you'll need a little more spine...

I have a long spline in the front drive line now, likely just retool it.

I have reservations. Finally put a limit strap on the passenger side.
At full droop the drive shaft will bind. Only CV that will hit the angle is a super 42.

Likely transplant a high pinion in it

Just flip your current axle upside down and side to side. Bam high pinion and driver drop all in 5 minutes.

Oo now with 4 reverse gears!

I've already acquired a HP axle. Math says it will remove 8-10° from the drive line angle, putting me at a running difference from the t case of 10°.
I can use the factory CV at that rate

What axle did you get? I am unaware of any high pinion passender drop axles...


Edit: I should have read more, nevermind.

The good:

Front power lock works great
17 mpg driving down
Suspension worked pretty good even with the strap on the front pass side

The bad:
Mushed a couple rockers due to driver error
133" wheel base is a lot after 105"
Mrk5 drives better than me with CC wheel base

The ugly

Front or rear DS?

 

[blazinzuk]

I guess rear.

 

[Bent77]

Rear. Drove it home 120 miles on the front

Wasn't too bad at 55.
Pretty sure front U joints need changed now

Driver error. I like that. Thats going into my box of stuff.

Atta boy

Yeah, well I drove it there. Duh, need to drive it like it has 35s and no trailer to get home

@Kay86K5
I think I did it backing out the washout where Nate humped all the red paint onto the tree. I really had no business trying that after watching Scott no go.
I did try to push it a bit today to see how it would hold up/do
Now I know

 

[Justin V]

Now I am a little bit jealous. I want to break something too. And not from being a dumbsss while working on my truck.

Probably be a few before everyone gets stuff in there
I was lazy, took like 3 pictures

 

[Bent77]

Hopefully you didn't hurt yourself

I can help you break stuff when the time comes

Yeah, actually that would make sense cause I did see you get on it a couple times in that wash. It was pretty funny seeing Nate's paint all over that tree, haha.

For the first time out with this rig, I thought it did really, really well. You should be proud that the maiden voyage was a success like that
