viva la joe!!!!!!
i seriously ****ed some **** up today. i'm sure someone will post pics eventually.
doing what? burnouts?
in the meantime. you should tell us what happend.
60's are pieces of ****
actually after spending 6hrs on a recovery mission from hell we are all exhausted
I want details asshole.
knuckle exploded, lets start there
on a side note...this thing has come a long way in 70 pages since 2005, good work...
now tell us whats next? rockwells? :gigem:
Where is the truck now? I drove by Cook's house on my way to work cause I wanted to see it but neither truck was there.
That sucks... I must have put some voodoo on your truck when I worked on it the other day. Hopefully the t-case mount stayed tightened up.
Question... When you made your high steer arm spacers did you make a kingpin spring spacer to compensate for the additional gap between the spring and cap? Without it the upper end of the knuckle wouldn't be torqued to the load spec and would have more movement than normal.
Its at westons. We drove by there and it was seriously fubared. He even ripped off the steering arm.
Cook will be calling Dedenbaer soon.
Tire got bound up on a down hill yesterday at 47. At first we believed it was just a hub or even a stub, but after cook started to pull forward, as weston put it, it sounded like bones crushing, then a chunk on the inner axle rolls down the hill and the tire fold under the truck. The knuckle split under the highsteer arm and ripped off the inner C, possibly fubaring that.
They spent the next couple of hours getting it down the hill with the help of some jeeps, the exploder fag, and steve, and into the valley where we spent the 10 year deal.
After doing some trailer jocking, Weston and I go his truck, that has a blown head gasket and trailer down to the valley. In order to get the sanchez lined up to put it on the trailer, we had to the ol' burnout push and spin, but with a burnt up clutch in made this process very interesting. Once in position Westons goes to start his truck, and dead battery. This is when I decided I needed a nap, cook will have to fill in the next hour.
When i woke up there was a tractor, Westons truck and trailer, and his GF's little car down in the valley. Once everything was sit getting a 3-wheeled truck on the trailer was the easy part. We pulled out of 47 around 8:45 and bee lined to the new chinese buffet to stuff our faces.
The front axle is in need of some serious work as it sits right now.
the one that used to be a black eyed pea, or mongolian?
Sweet! How's it compare to China King?
The old Black eye peas, small but overall better then CKB
after we figured out the battery was dead in westons truck. steve was already 3/4 of the way back down to us on the little 35 hp tractor that somehow was able to pick the left corner of my truck up. call him to turn around and get jumper cables and some tools. few minutes later weston starts walking to the front to meet his gf that brought more tools and some water. i pull the battery out of my truck and put it in westons truck when steve gets back on the tractor. try to start it only to realized weston took the keys to the truck with him to the front, wait another 30 minutes and they somehow wheel the hyundai down to us and we use my battery to start westons truck to get the trailer in the right place. then put it back in my truck so i can use the rearend to pull me on the trailer while steve lifted the front corner with the bucket on the tractor. (this was the way we got it from the bottom of the trail i was on back to the valley) then put the battery back in westons truck so we could get the **** out of there.
i think weston has pics on his camera. i'll get them when i pull the truck back to my house.
rockwells require too much lift. probably will be upgrading the current 60. has anybody else in the club even broken a KP knuckle?
i dunno about in this club, but it seems pretty common amongst pirate folks...just did a lot of research about BJ vs. KP and there werent many cases of broken BJ knuckle...could be because not as many people run them. there was one well documented comp guy who has run a BJ60 for many seasons and never broken a knuckle. the broken KP knuckles were attributed to the extra force being placed on top of the knuckle where it wasnt designed to go, which is intensified when running spacers under the arms...leverage and sheer and all that crap.
rockwells+springunder
Anything is better than China King. Flem Robbie and I concluded this after Flem tried eating some packing material last time we were there.
hurry up and post some pics
well appearently, stock **** isnt good enough, so i guess you gotta pay to play
