  1. Yes but no. Same angle yes, how it gets there doesnt matter. It can still have the bend in it. I run a straight track bar This is my jeep and is set up correctly steers better than my dodge with 2008.5 steering
  2. It will have bump steer if you go to crossover steering without also reworking the track bar to match the new draglink angle. You absolutely cannot change the draglink angle without making the track bar match it. Track bar and draglink are to be thought of as a single unit
  3. I just went from 32ish to 37ish tire and saw no increase in egt.
  4. I like the cummins Chirotherapie. Mine actually stopped chirping a year or two ago. I think we I put a alternator on. Tensioner has never been changed. 350k now
  5. Not sure why these guys think your boost numbers are off. Far as I can tell your fueled like stock. I doubt the smarty will increase much at all. If injectors are realy old they will also contribute to low psi.
  6. That power driven vid Was cool to watch. I really like my 62 for All around driving towing
  7. I dont know what average is. Thats about how long moog, and oem bars last on our 07. At one point in time i was on bored with the luke stuff. But honestly no one runs that stuff, its super easy just put a new fast food track bar on every few years. On my 02 im running a 7/8" heim track bar. I absolutely despise a tie rod end on the frame side. I cut the factory stuff off my frame and fabbed the frame side from scratch. I have lots of hours into fabbing the frame side id probly be ahead just to swap it out every couple years with a moog or whatever.
  8. You had me worried you had a meltdown
  9. I wouldn't mess with the lukes stuff. Just get whatever bar the parts house stocks and expect it to last 10-20k
  10. Yup a wet fluid changed every 20k or so will make them go long. Thf1000 would be my pick
  11. Purdy. Yeah were gona break 500 on the 07 by Christmas. It hasn't had any transmission work. Just a few clutches maybe at its low power and lowering level the transmission will outlast the truck. I have been impressed with the reliability of my 47re after throwing parts at it 8 or so years ago. Not sure if its cost to build versus some manual trans parts is better not. Just in clutches the 07 is nearing what i spent on the 47
  12. What exactly do you mean by launch timing? I picture a brake stand and launching with 30 psi. 400miles at half tank means im getting good mpg but no where near 28. Its common for my truck but doesnt seem to mean ive burned 15 gallons or 17.
  13. Thats scarey, sposed to last forever
  14. So mike. Say you get 28mpg 375hp what is your tourge guestimate. To keep things simple lets elimate things exstending passed the rear crank seal.
  15. Forst time putting the chromoly front shafts to use My watch dog, started feeding it about a week ago. Not super friendly , kinda inviting when i get gome round the corner to my back door and am greated by a hissing hungry badger.
  16. Im feeling for you. I still want to slap these guys. Ughhh. I probly the same look i give it each winter the 3 cylinder high idle works.. its the now wtf is wrong with it look
  17. Id look the master cylinder over for a leak. Seems mine leaked alittle before it leaked alot. On of, on of, on I think you can cycle your key 3 times on the 3rd leave it on it might flash codes across the odometer display
  18. Ive read lots of threads and still scratching head
  19. Is it actually shutting down at set temp or just idling for a certain amount of time then shutting down
  20. Ive become curious. Im going to see what idle temp is with motor at operating temp. Will compare turbo to manifold. 200 has to be at or close to minimum at egt probe. Im sure its slighter higher in the combustion chamber, as its cooled since fire. Nothing wrong with a cool down idle
  21. Nowcwhat about SAC compared to VCO SAC slightly more smoke more performance orientated compared to vco. Im probably going to replace my 7×009 sac with sac 7x010 150 or 175 wichever DAP sends. I've got over 100k on my 009s and its time
  22. I was wondering why you aren't doing the build builds rebuild yourself. Ive been wondering where dynamic is and if hes doing all stuff in house or still sending stuff across the world.
  23. When does the turbo timer let it shutdown. I can go from 1000 to cooled off and not registering on my egt gauge in 30 seconds. The hy35 could go 1400 to under 400 quickly to. I never under stood the turbo timer thing. I cant see any truck idling hot. I could see hot bearings but the egt gauge isnt realy measuring turbo bearing temp since its reading exhaust temp ahead of the turbo. I think the turbo timer thing was marketing against the smarty from 12 years ago when everyone ran 50-75 injectors stock turbos and popular smarty Syco Sorry i keep getting off topic. Mike is very intune with the smarty i mean quad. I think it might be best to just have him do a few tunes. I think theres also tune files on here somewhere. Im slightly intrested in quad someday. Used to have the app on my phone. Not sure id ever have the patience to tune it. Id just want to set the fuel to kill and run it roaling coal like a freight train Have you ran any of its default tunes can you tweak programming from these preset tunes? Is that turbo from DAP?
