[10sec]

Dibs on red car being first passenger in garage

 

[10sec]

Ohh, and good job, def see a huge difference already. Way to help him out DD

 

[PANDA]

truck will probably be moved in and filled up with shit just like years ago.

 

[greasy]

James, you are a beacon of organization!

 

[99PONTIACGP]

 

[Handsome Jesus]

If you were the one moving thousands of pounds of shit, then maybe you'd be first in the garage.

We are nearing 2 car capability.

and there is nowhere near enough stuff to fill up the truck again.

(I'm secretly trying to get the couch back in the garage)

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

yea cause nothing says "following and up to regulation standards" like your garage

 

[BrianG]

Well done gentleman! You should really think about getting some seating in there.

 

[Handsome Jesus]

so we can encourage even more laziness... great idea...

Cleaning up so we can work on my car too... james needs to repay me for the driveshaft work on the cressida.

 

[TommyGloves]

since im now able to see my narrowtrack D44 rear i measured axle centerline to yoke...if i junk this 7.1 i can toss the 44 under it and just shorten the driveshaft ~1.5 inchs so in the long run its prob better this way, the front yoke was 80 of it, still sucks that its like 1/4 the cost

whats the deal on your yoke, we leaving it to bolt it in or what?

 

[Handsome Jesus]

well I want to know if I need a new one or not. if I need a new one obviously it'll be an upgraded one. Gonna order stuff tonight I think...

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

clean gear lube on yoke splines, looks like it was leaking through the yoke, the seal groove is relatively dry for a "leaking seal"

 

[Handsome Jesus]

Is that my yoke then? I don't know enough to know what is bad james... you know this.

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

minor grooves, if i were throw a mileage on it ad say less than 100, more than 50k, it would prob be fine, it slips onto the splines real easy so there prob some spline wear, it is cast.
youll want some good straps for it
i havent ground the tacks off that are holding the dust cover on to yank the seal but imma bet this thing has a crush sleeve, if you go with a nice yoke id say blow the rearend apart and then we can use a solid and shim it for pinion preload then throw the carrier back in/IROR install bushings, plop it under the car

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

confimed it splines are fucked, pinion looks ok, splines twisted in the yoke, much more deformation at the bearing thrust face

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

its not showing up on the camera but youll see it soon lol
this thing had some force through it
