Default TECH: Gearing LADY3BGLOVER's Truck

GCSD3742's truck has gone under the knife for 4.10 gears and a Detroit True Trac.

I will address the tools needed when I finish the install.

Hear is the rear with all the guts removed.



Here are the guts.

I will be putting together the differential assembly tomorrow, and will post pics of that. It is a beautiful piece.

As a preview, here is a picture of a differential assembly for a 14 Bolt Semi-Floater that built for B3Enterprise.

Whoa good thing that was straightended out before she saw it...LOL good thing shes in New York right now and doesnt have internet access...Yes it his her truck she paid for the truck anything after that I have paid for. She has been helping a little bit more now that she can but overall I do it because I LOVE HER....And she wants to have a pimped out ride... She's about the only girl I have seen on here or any website that enjoys vehiclkes almost as much as I do...She has gotten self-sufficient now as well she can (change oil,filter,spark plugs,wires,spare tire,brakes,wiper blades just to name a few)....Thanks axisT6,Wheatley,TooTALL and the others who have made this vehicle build over the last 18 months come together and so fast....She'll be looking for a little trouble once the gears have been broken in...She'll see yall at the Dec. truck meet....LOL next is the fuddle torque converter install

Wow... looks a little too pretty to install on a truck, can it be mounted on a size 5 1/2 platinum band?
