Oooohhhh baby!!!!! Picked up the Dodge tonight. Holy Sh1t does she get up and dance now!
They cleaned up and welded up the broken weld on the rear axle housing and adjusted the timing a bit. Apparently my setting it by ear was only off by a couple of degrees.
Took her out for a little spin and lit ‘er up in front of my Mopar neighbour’s house! Can’t wait for spring! lol
No doubt! Can’t wait! I was hoping for some nice weather before locking her away, so I could light ‘er up… Might have to wait till spring though… She goes in Thursday.
Got the old girl booked in for some giddy up!
Changing the 2:73 gears to 3:73 and adding a posi.
The day I took her to the shop, I found a puddle of diff fluid on the garage floor.
Good thing I was taking her in anyway. Weld cracked on the axle housing. They can fix it when they do the gears.Picked up some new-to-me Dual rims Friday with Toyo Open Country AT tires… LT285/75R16
Took it for a short drive last night – they ride pretty good. Don’t notice much difference in acceleration. Probably because of the Tune.
Attachments:
A gravel, geogrid, then 1/4″ chip. Levelled, then laid blocks. every couple of layers They put in more geogrid after backfill. Took 2 weeks in total.
@Tundraguy you’re in.
Whew, thought I was seeing double there for a minute…
Wife and I will be heading up Saturday morning about 2am. Get there around 7. She’ll be wide awake by then, I’ll pass out for a few hours…
Not really the Dodge or garage, but this will eventually free up space in the garage.
Replaced an old hydro pole retaining wall in the backyard behind the garage. Got an extra 12’ behind the garage now as well as The Great Wall of Dorland.
Before and after pics:
Finally got the new Taco out on some trails, with The dog. He had a good time as well.
The software changes shift points, so the truck actually uses first gear now without having to floor it…
He used a laptop with TechStream software to do the re-write. Plugged into the DLC3 connector under the dash, just like Toyota does at the plant. He could see what software (outdated) version I had on my truck.
