Rear axle went to the axle shop today, will be getting 3.73's, new bearings, and new brake shoes.

And check out the link to the Buell, its looking mass amounts of badass now.

 

man that Buell is badass. you got a lot of talent man

 

Well here is what originally started this project.

 

ouch! any luck getting her back together?

 

OUCH!!!

 

Yeah its back together no problem, good friend of mine owns an axle shop and totally rebuilt it. Gave me 3.73's, new yoke, all bolts, cover, and completely painted the whole axle, its nice and clean now.

Just prepped the frame for paint right now.

Caaalean!





Started with this



Now this

 

clean

what did you use for the frame?

 

Just some gloss black spray paint from OSH.

Also have the rectangular tubing to replace 1' of the front of the frame, then to make a crossmember at the very front. I'll also be performing a shackle reversal while I'm at it.

Getting close to being driveable, but even then, I still need to figure out how to get the truck out of limp mode without buying a new manual transmission ecm.

 

Bump
This thread is too awesome for ppl to miss out on

 

Called Dodge today, $120 to TRY to get the ecm to reprogram to a manual (previously auto). They said the generic ECM's are more likely to be able to reprogram than the factory ECM's. Sounds like bull to me but if there are any Chrysler employee's here who want to help for cheaper let me know!
