Re: Slappy Style Go Fast with Dana 44/50 hybrid beams....

Bronco fell apart again last night, even the seats and dash ended up falling out by the end of the night. I think the dogs did it.

Re: Slappy Style Go Fast with Dana 44/50 hybrid beams....

I just did the injectors on my 1999 F350 7.3L but it has 200k miles on it and has been a great motor. This was the first motor issue. Now the transmission, I am on the second rebuild, but I am really hard on it with it in Baja and towing. This transmission is a major upgrade of everything that coul...

Re: Slappy Style Go Fast with Dana 44/50 hybrid beams....

Got all kinds of goodies on Friday. Watching the amazon drivers show up 3x in one day to your place in the boondocks with the world's worst road and driveway via security cameras is quite entertaining. Plan was to finish a sidejob then attack the bronco. That didn't happen. I will tell a story so al...

Re: Drill Bits

I work on elevators for a living and we buy bulk bits and taps in a cardboard sleeve from fastenal and they work great, lots of drilling stainless and up to 1/2" mild steel, I have found 90% of keeping the bits alive is rpm and cutting oil which should be common knowledge.

I feel ya man, the same reason I took a break from this thing is the same reason I now get to have my Harley parked in my dining room with a new beer fridge. Life is good sir.

Got the shocks back from rebuild and threw them on, moved the rear coilover resi's, scratched putting the blue bedsides on since the new 8" flares are done (just need to make a trip to SD from Sac to get them) ...built an intake for now, spent countless nights after work doing weatherpak connectors ...

Re: Slappy Style Go Fast with Dana 44/50 hybrid beams....

After hearing your MSD issues I am glad I’m going to be able to go right back to stock when the MSD craps out- and it will surely crap out! I made a separate harness from my weatherpak kit for a quick swap, after that its just one parameter in the controller to atleast make it run if it needs to be...

That’s great, glad you have it running. Hopefully it’s nice and smooth the rest of the way. You deserve some good luck! I saved a bird from an elevator pit at work the other day, was hoping for some good karma lol. Here is a current pic https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180923/7f8749853ace905406b6...

Fired it up last night, wasn't getting spark, after lots of testing and troubleshooting I bypassed my msd box and blaster 2 coil, changed parameters in the FItech and hooked up a factory coil, she started right up immediately. Video is on instagram under @bajakyle

Dont be surprised if this thing gets a full F250 7.3/ZF6 front/rear axle swap when I am done robbing it of what I need...my buddy already built one and has donor trucks waiting if he decides to do it.

Back on track, drug this 104k mile Bauer home as a donor vehicle, the 5.8 and trans runs great but we quickly found the 8.8 has had better days. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180817/a0db75b1c57fc42b32400e9deb9cea82.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180817/44ad0cd042cbe2f341ce1ffe2a93b8ff.j...
