work looks good Jim, can't wait to see the new numbers,
by the way I see the tires in the back of your truck is just sitting and collecting dust.
I can send a few bucks for shipping to get them out of your way, since there in the back of the truck to be hauled off any way.

Maybe I missed it, is there a pool going anywhere yet on how many miles the differentials go before the new traction introduces itself by making a very loud ugly scene? I hope you get that on video! I wish I had mine on vid when the rear end let out, it was pretty cool. It would be like the time your 60 let go in the other truck. I'm sure that vids gets lots of playtime, great conversation piece.

In case the tranny blows. Yeah it holds in heat but its the price you pay to go fast. Any number of things can go wrong in the tranny and puke its guts out throught the pan which screws up the track and could also cause loss of traction and a wreck.

The faster you go, the more safety stuff is needed like the trans blanket and his soon to be rollbar installed.
