The driveshaft doesn't move when the truck free spins...well, at least that's what I was told. I'll know more today.

I was just woundering what your #'s were. The level 4 should be fine.

Thanks, you had me worried

Is the 450HP rating a flywheel number or rear wheel number?

It's the rearend The driveshaft spins but the truck doesn't move. Lastnight my buddy was looking at it and said it wasn't spinning though...but I definately saw it spinning today. I'm going to shop for a 14 bolt.

well...I rented a car hauler trailer - which was too short AP, I envy you for getting that truck on the thing, but I didn't have the tools or time to dick with it. I ended up getting a roll back wrecker to come pick it up.

I'll pull the diff cover this week to see what it looks like in there

nope, 275/60 Toyos!!!! They were preppin' the **** out of the track for the Titan qualifiers. I couldn't believe how well it hooked and launched...it definately had a reason to snap

EDIT: I let some air out of the tires...they were at 25psi.

cool, I should be safe then. I think another cam'd LQ4 with headers dynoed 390...that's what I'm basing my numbers off of. Also my trap speed and race weight calculates to about 385HP.
