The Frankenstein Build! LT/Expo/Trail rig..and BS

In a deranged sort of way, yes.

 

Ya know Ben I thought about it more as I went to bed and it could be a wore out spring in the slave cylinder.

 

I find it best to roll the windows down as well. That way with the tire roar and the radio I can't hear any squeaks or rattles.

 

If it sounds like crickets more than likely it's the throw out bearing. The pilot bearing would only make noise whenever the trans input and crankshaft are spinning at different rates.

 

Damn it sorry. Throw out is what I meant. The one on the input shaft.

It'll still spin when truck is in neutral.

I'm guess if a new spring in the slave was put in then it would go away

 

Damn so my dad hunted for a shim today. No luck. Had to order one. Want be here till next week

Stupid Yukon..pretty disappointed.

 

It does yes.

Be curious to try it anyways. Say to pull the slave and take it apart. Then just bleed the lines

Yea I saw that guys setup on here a while ago. I don't love it. Too close to the radiator hoses and belts for me.

It does work though.

To me it wouldn't be that hard to just wrap it around the back. Also would keep the tubbing run shorter so bit faster spool. Not drastic..

I don't like it really

 

whats goin on in here?

 

Can't see the video but one thought is it could be the input shaft bearing in the trans case. I had to replace one on my Integra a long time ago, sound went away when the clutch was in. Throwout bearing typically makes noise with the clutch out.

Pretty simple to replace.

 

All sorts of shit haha as usual..

Btw you ever set gears in a 8.4"?

 

is a 2nd gen elocker an 8.4? if so yes done that and acouple old pickups rear thirds....

 

nah be the open or LSD diff.

i just find it insane my install kit doesn't have the right shit in it.

 

Some photos for shits i guess.

pinion is drastically smaller.

Diff just before setting the carrier in

how my pattern is right now. Looks good really. once i get the bachlash a few thousands better it'll sit a bit deeper.

well ratio is it? stock pinion has 10 teeth, new one has 7.... can only go so big with the ring gear before it doesnt fit lol, so u gotta go with a smaller pinion....

that pattern doesnt look bad.... howcome an open diff?

 

That pattern is pretty much in the center of the teeth. You don't want it too deep. I think it looks pretty good

 

5.29.

Cant afford an arb yet. Least ill know how to do it and do it fast when I can.

It'll only move 4-6 thousands of an inch. Backlash is 14 thousands right now. It would be loud. Needs to be 6-10. Shooting for 8

But yea. Pinion depth is fine.

 

ok gotcha.

mine is right around 10.

looks like it went well for you other than not having the correct shims

 

well see there u go, that explains the crazy small pinion....

and yeah moving backlash in only .004 isnt alot. idobviously check your pattern again once bl is set but i think it looks pretty decent

 

Yea went pretty well really. No big issues.

Yea ill check it again. But so far so good I think.

Yea still good power. Turbos FTW man.

I'm sure if you try hard enough you can get the same power more efficiently.

 

I don't like it so far forward cause there is no room for the intake filter.

Other then that I'm not that worried since I'd plumb a IC anyways so if it's right next the intake manifold will cause issues
