I scored some tires for the Bronco today in Vegas. They have 1 race on them but will have to do since they are still on back order.

awesome deal on the tires, got the shocks all mounted up and replaced the broken junk in mine today.

Looks good, can't wait to see how they feel compared to the junk I had on mine.

Looking for $900 for the pair. I may have them traded off for a set of APPs plus cash though.

Pulled the rear end apart to repair a loose reluctor ring and gear whine. Found this.

Philo obviously employs the SSS driving technique...

Stomp on the gas
Stay on the gas
Steer

Just ordered a Yukon nodular 3.25 case and some spacer bearing races from Giant Motorsports. Should be here Wednesday.

After removing the rear drive line I spotted a hole in the accordion boot. Also my output flange is way loose on the splines. Hopefully the flange is softer and the main source of wear.

I just realized I have not put many pictures up lately. I'll have to fix that. This is me trying my best to be a rock donkey.

Also, a naked pic.

I thought I had hurt the motor at the Mint 400 due to a horrible miss it had. Just ended up being a bad plug. Electrode was melted to the tip. I was worried but cylinder #8 checked at 150psi and it cleaned up with new plugs and a MSD cap/rotor.

I figure that cylinder runs the hottest as it it farthest from the water pump and also the ambient around the motor there.
