That is for sure. The Ride will be down a while until a new motor is ready.

looks healthy how did it place?

lubeowner · Jun 17, 2013

It finished 3rd. 1st was a Haisley motor. Second was Dan's Diesel Duramax.

Dzchey21 · Jun 17, 2013

respectable for sure 2.6?

lubeowner · Jun 17, 2013

Very happy with it made a lot of changes in the motor and it seems to be cleaning alot more of the fuel up then it ever has. Haven't dynoed this setup so I can't say for sure how it really is doing. Just happy it seems to be in the ballgame. Only time will tell. Also hoping we can keep it together.

In the back, the rear end is a Dana 80 upgraded with a 37 spline spool and some good shafts. We cut the hubs off the 80 and welded the Sterling 10.5 ends, mostly just for weight savings. It has F150 leaf springs but only two on each side. Front rotors used on the back that have been lathed down to about nothing and running chevy impala calipers.

On the front it is mostly stock, it used to break a lockout every other hook. The truck has drive flanges to replace the lockouts, crosses to replace the u-joints. All shafts are stock. Extra set of shocks up front to keep the front end planted. Front end it lowered by removing the rubbers and parts of a spring. Steering box is tapped and running a hydraulic assist ram to be able to turn it since it has a spool in front and no lockouts.

The truck has about a 4" body lift.

Interesting to say the least, like the Dana 80 and 37 splines. Hope I don't have to go that route any time soon. lol Just depends how I play and beat on it.
