Re: Frankentruck

Yesterday I pulled the 21 tooth driven gear out to find that it was just a slightly smaller diameter than the 22 tooth driven gear. I am sticking with the 22 tooth gear and dealing with the speedo reading 5 mph slow. I don't want to pull the tailhousing off the trans to switch drive gears..

I also got some new bulbs. Ended up going with some Sylvania halogen bulb sealed beams. It only ended up being 30 bucks for two because I have a team member discount at Advance Auto Parts. I didn't do a night test last night, but I probably will tonight.
