Re: She is back.
 

When the driveshaft was installed were all of the Ujoints put in the correct position from each other? In other words all the ujoint caps should line up with each other down the length of the shafts or it will throw the shaft out of balance. It would happen when the two sections are slid together at the carrier bearing. Just a thought.

What?!?!?! That's crazy. I guess for liability reasons, but come on. LOL

You could could always just take the wheels/tires off and do a "carry-out" balance maybe. My dad has done that before with tires that needed repair (nails, etc.) It comes back on the invoice as "Carry-out".

Re: She is back.
 

Yeah it is crazy but the front tires are really low profile althought they ride suprisingly well. I bought the wheels and tires off craigslist so I will go with a beefier front tire when these wear out.

Pic of the day!

Re: She is back.
 

Get your issues fixed???

Re: She is back.
 

Still have a vibration in the driveline and possibly still need a higher amp alternator. I also have some 1" spacers being made for the rear wheels. I am going to take it to have the rear gears changed to 3.73 as I currently have a 2.8??? something and that is not good with the 700r4 I just had rebuilt. She does drive really good otherwise. I have put 200 miles on her this week but need to get the driveline fixed ASAP.

Re: She is back.
 

At least you are getting through some of the issues and can drive it right now. :lol: Crappy roads kill that here for us.

Re: She is back.
 

Glad she is on the road, get the drive shaft checked out while the rearend is getting done. Love that pic and the cold refreshment looks very inviting it's making me feel like taking the day off:b69::lol:

Re: She is back.
 

I am wanting to take it to a shop in Dallas I have used in the past. He can do the rearend and driveshaft. I have a lot of money in this set up but may change to a one piece driveshaft. I will get their opinion on my set up and see. I wish they were closer I would get it done this week.

Re: She is back.
 

definatly helps to use a shop you trust, but I still wanta beer LOL

Re: She is back.
 

I had a few while we were fishing Saturday. My daughter caught her a nice bass so I had to get the camera and thought the beer pic was cool.

Re: She is back.
 

Man, thats a nice catch, thats real pretty spot also. :chevy:

Re: She is back.
 

This is crap! You're burb is a halfton and doesn't "require" higher load tires. I bet they didn't want to balance the tires because they knew it would be a pain to get them right. I've balanced alot of those wheels and they can be a headache to balance but all it takes is a little extra effort and your good to go. When is the vibration happening? Usually tires won't vibrate under 60 mph unless there seperated.

Re: She is back.
 

I think the tires are fine was just going to get it done to mark off the list. The vibration happens aroung 30 mph and the speed varies sometimes.

Re: She is back.
 

I took her to the local cruise night at Whaterburger where there was a good turn out. This is the first time I have ever taken any vehicle to a cruise night or car show.

Re: She is back.
 

And looks a 1000 times better than the 2 stangs you parked in between :metal:

Re: She is back.
 

Great, that means you've got most the bugs worked out. Congradulations and nice pics.

Re: She is back.
 

The guy in the red stang was killing himself cleaning his rig. My clean up took 15 minutes.

I have some pinion shims ordered which I hope will solve the vibration issue and I still need to swap to 3.73's so the 700r4 will operate better. I also have some wheel spacers for the rear on the way. This town has some major dips coming off the roadways into parking lots.

Re: She is back.
 

Hey... watch it on the Shelby...

Re: She is back.
 

Love the burb. Nice catch. I have the same mirrors as well. And I like your wheel.... Nice build. Glad it's on the road
