Vid from today

Had another bad luck day today. I got the transfer case swapped out Thursday, and went to try my luck today at a timed race. Got up to the line, and let it rip, somewhere between the 1st and 2nd shift it broke the U-joint on the front output of the T/C. Got a little wild on the top end, and my day was over. At least it stayed on all four wheels. It was sliding sideways for a fair bit more after the vid quit. Time to get a full 1350 joint on there, instead of a hybrid 1350/1330 joint.

damn that c headed deal sounds good ...... but I think you need to add some nitrous  

It's not legal in the class that I built the truck for.

hoooollddd on there old farmer Rob   

Shiny side up Big Daddy !

Nice that you didn't tear up more stuff.   I broke a joint at launch and tore up everything from the ring & pinion to the planetaries.  I guess you just live right. 

Nice job gathering it up.

Glad to see she's still running good and braking parts..lol jk.. u got lots of front wheel hop how close are your ratios?

Wheel hop was when the U joint came unglued. 3.08 front, and 3.90 rear, it comes up to about 7% overdrive to the front by the rollout measurements.

Looks like the wheel hop caused the u joint to come unglued to me??

3.90 rear must run low range?

Whoa, a bit squirrely, good recover. Sounds mean.

Schmitty , you should sell tickets to let everybody ride with you.! wow!

Right there is the problem! I thought everyone knew that duct tape was better than glue.....

I have some new parts on the way, a 1350 yoke for the T/C, and a new set of springs for the front end. I hope that this will go away now, and it will be smooth sailing for a while again. Thanks for all of the help guys. 

I agree 100% with that I like to run mine as close as possible no more than a couple %.
