i know this has nothing to do with what we are talking about but i found this and it made my night hahahaha hes like Chris Farley back from the dead playing drums.

 

Hey i sent u a text brandana

 

It's a trip in a D.D on how many rude comment's I get..."slow down!" ,"Is something broke?" or my personal favorite "why would you do that?" and I just smile cause I will get new tires quicker LMFAO!!

 

I still need a front. I have one i got from Derek (jmax) but its about 3/4" to short. thinking i need to track down a auto shaft and i might have a manual? idk though kinda odd. Derek said when he swapped his D44 he had to have them shortened not extended... kinda confused lol probably have to have one made.

 

with being how big a d30 is compared to a d44 that makes sense. MAYBE?

 

I think, I am going to come for a few hours (before my family BS lol) "I need to flex it out and see how long my DL should be lol"

but ill mainly watch and go just for the fun of it, need to get out even if it isn't in my own rig. Ill meet you guys there at 10am.

 

yeah, its gets a little confusing because the pinion on the D30 is shorter then the D44. So it should have to be shortened, but i stretched my front axle out about 2-2.5" thinking this would compensate and my stock DL should work... however i am now short.

Derek said when he did it the pinion is longer to the point that even though he stretched his about 3" he still had to have it shortened lol...

idk ill measure it tomorrow and get one made out of mine, then not worry about it again lol.

 

So after 6 hours slcxj and I finally got my shocks done in the jeep, only problem now is the 2 holes in the cargo area that we had to cut to get the broken volts out, the jackass before me broke 2 of them so I was riding with out the one shock and unfortunately we broke the other 2. But now it's finished other then the wholes we gotta fix, but due to the obnoxiously loud sound coming from the holes and lack if money now I won't be able to make the run tomorrow

 

sorry to hear that, i had to do the same thing with my old jeep and i just got a piece of thin aluminum and silicon and small self tapping screws its easy to do

 

That's what I'm gonna try to do, oh yeah and I now know I have a cargo area that is like 70% rust

 

thats not good is it rust by where your wholes are

 

throw a blanket down in the back over the holes and come out. a little noise shouldn't ruin your day!

bummer on the rust.

 

x2 i agree dont let a little noise ruin a great day

 

X3 I sure would'nt let that keep me from runnin!

 

JEFF, the way you've been acting towards this run..... i dont think ANYTHING is going to stop you from not making this
