Orange County CAF's: up to no good

Yellow Top...
Way too expensive from the auto parts store though. Amazon is way less expensive...

Edit: actually expensive AF on Amazon too

 

Yeah, crazy expensive. Plus warranty is hard if they do go out.

 

Amazon has been slacking lately... several occasions now I’ve had to get refunds for expedited shipping that they couldn’t honor.
I swear I bought my Yellow Top for like $170-$180... but I just saw it going for $270! That’s how much the joka was at O’Reilly and why I went with Amazon... I did put one of the O’Reilly deep cycles as my second though. I figured with Dos Batterios I would have close to no issues for a hot minute.

 

Wear gloves smarty pants

 

Spotted this bad boy earlier today on the 10W around Fontucky area...
Clean Rig

 

I keep a few boxes around for oil.

 

All my old shirts from welding my cab cage turned into this years shop rags. I wasn’t far behind you with the oil situation.

 

What do you have going on with your truck?

A couple friends came over today to help with my truck. I smoked some ribs while they were there and we got about 2 weeks worth of work done in 6 hours. Three extra sets of hands is way better than 1-2 hours alone after work everyday.

King of the Hammers and TDS are right around the corner.

 

One of my dad's best friends owns a couple taco shops and my dad stored several hundred of his workers long sleeve shirts for him after one of the restaurants closed. It is so nice having unlimited shops shirts that turn into rags after a few uses.

 

Good ol mig welder burns holes through everything.

 

I was a bit worried I was gonna fuck up the copper line in my thirds also when I got ARB's.

I have also been thinking about switching out the 3rd's so the one that is currently in front can get fully broken in. Front to rear, and rear to front.

 

Yup. I managed to light my pants on fire the other day with the plasma cutter.

 

what gears are those?

 

Wow. Sucks.

Assembly of the R&P and ARB in the 3rds was the only thing I was willing to pay for labor on my truck from a legit shop. It did not sting my wallet and ego too much since I took them out and installed them myself.

 

Yes it is. And it is a significant amount of weight that you have to maneuver just right while holding it up to not hit the copper.

 

You should go in the 3rd gen section and talk about how 4.88 make you feel to become a more inspired human being.

 

I have a really simple question that I've been researching about, but can't find the answer that I'm looking for. So, the question is:

If I change my stock 4.10 diff gearing to 4.56, do I need to change the gearing in the transfer case as well???

Since I'm going from stock 225 75's (i.e. what the truck actually came with originally) to 31 10.50's, because now the tire size is now mismatched with your gearing, which makes sense?

My understanding is that you do not need to re-gear if you're only going 1x tire size up/down, but from 225 to 31 is a pretty big jump in size difference, which is like 3x tire sizes in jump!!!

Based off of my tags, my truck has 410's.

Thanks!!!

 

Bro tw tire calc. Only a 9.5% difference,lol. You only need to regear front and rear diff. 410s and 31 will hold you over with the 4 banger.

 

No, you only need to worry about the Ring and Pinion gears.
