Man that is a whole lotta GIDDIE UP right there!!! Breakin loose in 4th would be SWEET!!! Although your rear end is probably gonna hate you with a passion!! LOL

i can only chirp 4th...guess thats cuz of the ladder bars planting the rear forcing tire spin rather than axle wrap

 

Since we're talking about finally getting trucks running again...

Finally got the old 95 back on the road! About a month ago the starter bolts backed out, and broke the threads out of the adapter plate. When I pulled that apart to replace it, I found out why my truck has been hard to get in gear since I swapped in the NV5600. Apparently my DD clutch was so old that there were no NV5600's with DD clutches, so mine wasn't built to be used with one! The hubs were a different design, and my input shaft didn't spline in far enough

So, one rebuilt 3250 12CB South Bend Clutch, a $165 starter, and a $160 adapter plate, and I'm back on the road! Good thing I had the 98, or I'd have been real mad about having to drive the S10 for a month! Too bad the 98 is a turd

I'm nowhere near 550hp, but it sure is better than the stock 98 with it's slip-a-matic

Did BD put 13 inch bling blings on his truck again?

 

i dunno but i know if i swapped my 35's out for the stock 245's off dads 04 that i ran for a month last year...i could BLOW them off the rim from a roll. so small, so light, no tread

 

Well, I may not have the ponies you all have (working on it) but it is hard to break these big bas**rds loose! EXCEPT for my 2 LO gear!



I'd rather not spin anyway...wasted speed and $$$$s.

 

Kinda they way I feel about the 19.5's on the 98! At $320 each I won't be doing many burnouts with them on....not that lighting up a 35" 100lb tire wouldn't be cool, just not cheap

The 95 would do a heck of a good burnout without the flatbed on it when I had the twins on...3rd gear launch would leave 4 - 200ft marks Dad wouldn't believe it was me who made them on the road in front of the house

Ya. Right. It was that cement truck slamming on its brakes when you pulled out in front of it! And I forgot to wash the calf poop off those tires before the picture! Opps!

 

HaHa...I drive enough big equipment to know the first rule of the road....Bigeest Vehicle always wins

10-4. The "cement truck" thing was fresh in my mind because a Dolese truck pulled out in front of me at lunch....I stopped needless to say...that turd....I'm sure coming out of the plant he was loaded to the hilt.

 

It's CONCRETE too, BTW

Chris

 

Ya, Ya. Caught me not thinking. Don't you have some Orange tractors to sell?

 

Combine season...not much tractor talk going on right now!

what you say about a dually's spinning is right (on wet pavment), but on dry pavment thay hook up better than a single. that's why pro-streets have wide tires, but don't plan on driving then in the rain, and put an extra 1k in the bed and see how much wheel spin you get. my bed is 1500, a stock bed less than 500, and yes this is my 2nd rear-end

 

oh ya, I put a set of 35's off my buddys 3/4 truck have you ever seen a 4th gear 30 psi boost lanch and ride the brake alittle. I had to let off after about 3 min. (you con't breath for all the smoke) It's fun roasting someones elses tires
