CT Coffee Nites '06 Check in on what's happenin'

[PRattenbury]

I'm not sure about the rear. I think both of us have 60's in front, though. I know I'm going to end up with 35" or taller tires. If I keep my 3. 54's the optimum RPM range for my engine will be well over 80 miles an hour. Not too good! BTW, I left strict instructions with my girlfriend to put stamps on the envelope/check I put together yesterday and get it in the mailbox. I'll follow that with a phone call in a few minutes, to preclude any blonde moments.

Jim what truck you bringin down friday if you bring down the 3rd gen i like to take a close look at the wheel skins and see if there interchangable with mine. I suppose to be gettin a lift for my truck (kore) and i want to change the wheels with alum one that look like your skins but I be foolish to do so if i can just change them and put on some 37s. then my cowl hood clear head lights and 3rd brake. strobe it all out done.

 

[Latenight6]

mark dont forget your truck is 2wd and pauls is 4wd hes goin to need gears in the front for the 4wd to work right

 

[PRattenbury]

Ooops. Looks like I could buy ring and pinion gears all day long on EBay. I think the carriers stay the same. Mostly, I don't want to ave to rip the housings out and bring them someplace to get them set up. I'd prefer to just take the covers off, pull the axles out, change the gears out, replace my leaky axle tube seals, and install all my new EGR brake goodies right on the truck. I know setting pinion depth is precise business. Might have to pull the whole deals out of the truck to get it done right. If I could be sure I could get those control arm bushing bolts loose, I'd buy some longer arms and new bushings while I had it out. I threw everything I had at those things when I was putting in the Kore stuff. They no move.



Oh, the 191's finally made it here. I ordered a lift pump yesterday. How does one go about checking for a bad/leaky injector? I'm still gaining oil somehow.

I want to eliminate all the 'cheap' possibilities first before I get worried about the P-pump.

Try giving Pete@ Hamden Automotive a call for the Ring & Pinion swap. Very good shop to deal with when it comes to setting up gears. The job can be done in the truck with the correct tools, and he is very reasonable with his prices, for both parts and labor! 203-498-2212

 

[PRattenbury]

Thanks for the tip. I'll be in touch fairly soon.

 

[PRattenbury]

Signal, the MIG and torch will probably be coming to the shop Friday night. My son's been sent off to have the bottles filled today.

Paul #1 I'll have the 12V with me fri. I dont know if there interchangeable, since mine are alloys, yours are steel. Im planning on ripping them off if I can figure out what kind of glue is holding them on, I dont think there going to come off peacefully though.



Paul#2 If a leak is not visible coming from the top of the injector hold down nut you will have to pull them and get them pop tested probably. If it were a tip leaking, Id figure you would have lots of blue smoke on startup and a rough running condition.

 

[TClemens]

Will do, if you pm me your number I will call you sunday afternoon, I should be back around 11 or so.

 

[Signal73]

I sold a 1970 Chevelle convertible a few months ago. The guy that bought it from me turned around and sold it on EBay as an original LS6 car for $150,000. The guy that bought it is suing the guy that bought it from me for fraud.
