Hey Delmo, is that the General Lee airborne in the picture in the background!!!!! That's a Picaso in my book if it is.

Delmo · 02-19-2011, 11:06 PM

Funny story, I scammed that painting from a cheap hotel somewhere and got my Tattoo artisit to paint the General and the ramps on it. It's so funny, people love it. I've been offered $500 bucks for it. LOL.

mine was like that when i got it. so now i got the rear slip joint shaft from cpp in mine, think it cost me a little over $200 but i went and picked it up, it works pretty good to, you should look into it. its worth it in my opinion. also flip the carrier bearing mount and that will help as well, it sure did on mine.

You wouldnt have a part number would? Sorry to hijack you thread Del.

likaroc13 · 02-21-2011, 10:59 PM

niiiice!

Delmo · 02-21-2011, 11:01 PM

Ya the slip yolk is there right behind the support bearing. To get the u joint right next to the bearing for a longer rear shaft is twice the price. This complete 2 piece shaft was $380.

shrunken66stroker · 02-21-2011, 11:13 PM

What sensors, compressors and valves you using?

Wildstreak · 02-21-2011, 11:27 PM

Where did you get the driveshaft made?

Delmo · 02-21-2011, 11:34 PM

It's all Accuair, the stuff is amazing.

Drive shaft came from a little place here in Burbank. It was cheaper than I've paid in the past and looks great.

jimmydean · 02-21-2011, 11:38 PM

Nate's gear looks so good. Awesome.

Wildstreak · 02-21-2011, 11:41 PM

Does the driveshaft have two slip joints? Just curious, yours is the first 2pc Ive seen with a droppmember, and is what I need to do with my suburban.

broey · 02-21-2011, 11:49 PM

damn thats gonna be sick... you should leave this one in phoenix too.
