[Buckshot]

I'm gonna try.....my tcase is TOAST. I ordered my Atlas, 4.88 gears, and and Eaton e-locker (whohoo!!!!) today.....if it comes in, Attica will be my test facility.

eb told me he was not going to make it, but he said an october run like last fall would work for him..oh well. this should be a good trip none the less......

Sounds sweet Scott, cant wait to see it all

I won't make it, the RRORC Chubfest run is the next month and all my spare cash is going toward attending that. Just can't afford a run that close to it.

got any of this yet? sounds sweet

everything but the t-case is in (received, not yet installed I mean)

Thinking I might head down to Taxx's place this weekend to do some other welding work, but Patterson driveshaft will be doing my gears/locker next week (they will be the ones making my custom driveshafts for the Atlas when it comes in too) I'm taking Taxx's advice and not doing the gears myself since it is a daily driver still.

Damn Atlas ETA is June 7th. That gives me 3 days to get it in, and tow it to Patterson to make and install the driveshafts. They think they only need 2 days...but I'm cutting it REALLY close.

I may do Attica without the Atlas and just install my old front driveshaft back in when I get there since I'm still stuck in 4wd and my shift motor to 4lo still works.....and hope someone has a trailer to take it home on when I grenade the tcase completley since it has no rear seal anymore.

 

[dman726749]

hahahahaha damn that is cuttin it close....what ratio atlas is it?

 

[Buckshot]

4.3:1 Atlas with a driveline brake from High Angle Driveline and 4.88 gears...so I may need to beef up the brakes in the near future too....

I'll quit hijacking the event thread now and just post a full writeup and a new elite page once its done.

 

[dman726749]
