Finally saw the pic!
I can't see any of the pics :(
Hill William! Love it.
Woot woot!
I doubt he's even sure it's the OBX fault yet?
Hey, the pulling to the left thing. I'm having my old Quaife rebuilt for the same thing. Put in a new Quaife, problem gone so far. Old Quaife was...
Update!!!!!! New best MPH! Come on JT!
What wires did you end up going with?
By fancy....do you mean logic module :)
Big CONGRATS on the PB!
FWIW, 2 step on below "X" MPH works pretty well. I have mine set to 4 mph.
FWIW, I use the stock Ford TPS with stock electronics no problems.
Glad to hear you are working out a ton of bugs!!
Your list sounds familiar. LOL.
My fuel level sending unit decided to get stuck again a few weeks ago. I took it apart (this is the third time I believe), and the little magnet had wiggled out of...
Glad to hear no broken axles! How was the track prep?
Also, do you plan to run strictly 93 octane at Drag Week, or some sort of mix of something?
I just found out last night that I CAN get...
Yeah, that's what I meant! We used that stuff before and it really does work as a knock retardant. Wouldn't mind carrying a few cans of it instead of race fuel.
I'm considering trying the same. I already run 93 on the street and just keep my foot out of it, but it would be nice not to have to carry race fuel anymore. I wonder if Torco is still around?
The OBX has one less "pinion" gear (for lack of a better term) than does the Quaife.
The Quaife is closed off in the middle.....no way to push an axle out from the other side.
While I agree the track was sticky, I do not believe that is why we were breaking axles. I was having uncontrollable wheel hop in left lane that I believe was caused by rough track conditions and...
Pics of my broken axle from Monster Mopar Weekend (same weekend JT broke his two DSS axles) FWIW:
...
I don't think I've ever broke the middle of a shaft. Usually I break the shaft inside the trans, the inner CV, and now the outer cv. Oh....hang on....I take that back....I think I have broke the...
Which really is a good thing, as I saw Jon Moore come inches from taking out the tree when an axle broke on his welded diff DOH!
Please keep us updated on what DSS has to say. This is going to be our next adventure I'm afraid......trying to find more durable axles.
I'm not sure if this is true or not.....I mean, once...
JT,
Are those discs sprung hub?
Looks good man! Hope she holds together for a LONG time for you.
Just FYI, before I junk any transmission, I always pull all the input shaft shims and diff shims to keep on hand for future builds (and fork pads if they are good). I also have a selection of...
