Sick5 · 03-02-2012, 11:29 AM

my pinion angle still needs to be adjusted. Im having a small issue with it.
im sitting at 5" from the ground
tranny 5
first 3
bearing 0
second 13
pinion 0
the problem is my second driveshaft is at 13. i cant understand why!?

DRTYRAT30 · 03-02-2012, 11:38 AM

Did you space your carrier bearing up

Delmo made a nice spacer out of aluminum stock, I just used some square tubing...

Sick5 · 03-02-2012, 11:52 AM

X2 a couple shades darker than the argent silver that comes on the rally wheels would look good. The blue, to me, will not go well with the exterior of your truck. Just my opinion.
