Just changed it, should work now.

 

both worked for me , looks like it will be some good fun !!!

what did they mess up ? neither one of us saw you guys around

 

Who built your driveshaft Chris? The whole project looks GREAT man, and I like how it's coming together quick for you instead of dragging on & on.

 

A bunch of little stuff, they were just sloppy. The inside of the house was really dirty (cost us almost $800 to have it cleaned), tons of burned out light bulbs, she re-keyed the house without permission so we had to fix that, a broken door handle, tons of little nail and screw holes in the walls that needed to be patched, quite a few scratches and scuffs, loose handles, didn't trim palm trees like she was required to, etc. There was a random 6-8" river rock in the laundry room...wtf? She also took the curtains we left, all of the solar lights we had in the back yard are gone, and she even took a hand towel rack we had attached to the cabinets in the kitchen. Good riddance! She thinks she is getting her $1000 deposit back too...she is getting an $800 bill instead....cost us over $1800 to put the house back together. The new girl seems way better!

It's a local shop, Bill's Englewood Driveshaft. Great guy! It took 3 weeks, but he said he had several problems with his supplier shipping wrong parts. He was helpful though, I couldn't believe he made me a temporary driveshaft to run with until he could finish the actual one.

I don't have the patience to let these kinds of projects drag on...I want it done, and I want it done now, lol.

I drove the truck to work today, and it rides a lot better than it did before. The axle shims got rid of a slight driveline vibration that I had before, and it rides quite a bit better without the overload springs in there too. I still want to have the balance on the wheels checked, I think it might be off a little, but it's not bad. Probably a 50% improvement over where it was before.

I need to have the front end aligned again, I've changed enough stuff (ride height and tie rod sleeves) that it's off. I did check the UCA adjuster bolts and they are maxed out...are there different UCA's that I can get to allow it to be aligned properly again if they can't get the camber in spec?

 

HOLY CRAP !!! no wonder they were so quiet when they left , no one woulda ever guessed they were moving out , yeah ida send her a bill for more , lol

 

Yep, it went out today

What do you guys think of these angles? I know the diesel guys like to have everything flat to keep from bending tie rods, I'm hoping slightly negative will be ok since some of the weight will transfer to the rear when launching.

 

you can always get some bump steer ends to lower the tie rods down

 

What are those? Never heard of them.

You can get 2* offset bushings for your upper control arms. There are also aftermarket eccentrics for another 1 1/2* if you need more.
