Well if you were around here I could hook you up with 4" or 5" I can't figure out any of my quad stuff lol. I guess in time I'll learn something...lol

There's an option for oil pressure on the quad but undoubtedly it's really not an option. Would be nice to have that option at some point. I agree seeing those numbers are more satisfying.

Meanwhile I wish I could just figure out my timing. Was that just playing around or do you run close to that initially?

Call C&M Gear Works. Their here close to me in Springfield, MO. I bought all my t-case and nv5600 parts/seals from them when I rebuilt both. They will have whatever you need - in your case a rear seal. Great guys, super knowledgeable and great prices! https://cmgearworks.com/

Yea I was being silly lol. There is alot to it and your correct, mostly the prep work. I think if a guy could get a decent diy setup and do some practicing, could make a pretty good side gig.

The Ole wiggle jiggle method lol. Just twisting and turning if I remember right. Clean it really good before you pull it. I was talking with @Mopar1973Man and I still don't think the spring gate would clear. Still would have interference with in drain. I forget what's it's called but it was an adjustable elbow of some sort on the compressor side I think, that you could use in place of spring or rod.

They are push in style... I got the braided line from DAP aswell but have a problem with fitment. Tried the bending etc but the rod is just not going to function properly with it, even with stock line it's limited. I need to get rid of the wastegate completely and go to a valve style. (Looking for ideas - hint hint) Super Bee Special turbo btw 64/71/14

Have 2 batteries makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside, extra security than one and MO power... Speaking of batteries, I'd like to do a battery relocate someday to under my flatbed in a "under box" I call them.

I need to double check my vents today. I'll be under it anyway pulling starter to disassemble and check again.

I might look into powder coating one of these days. Get an old oven, gun etc.., and go to town. How hard can it be right?

Yea it's on really tight. I borrowed 3/4 impact from the shop and had to heat the nut with a little torch (not to much) and the impact slowly took it off. Any part drive train wise I go to C&M Gear Works, there here in town but I think they ship too, good people and prices. $80 for yoke, straps, and bolts. Only thing from oriellys was the seal.

Little trick I used with mine, I painted the whole thing in the engine high heat paint from oriellys that I had laying around then sanded very carefully the tops of lettering and ridges, polished it then clear coat. Turned out awesome.

I have never done this! Maybe I need to give it a try and see what happens.

I can second getting a SOVP. I came from a dragon flow vp44, now a SOVP on a HO truck. DFVP44 is one of the biggest vp44's out there, made a TON of HP, but man they are a pain to deal with. Same goes with the hrvp44. Stay away from hrvp44's and go with the highly suggested sovp44. Edit/side note: HO trucks can use a SO pump but a SO truck can't use a HO pump.

I didn't know how to add to @smokeythedodge thread he has already made so here we go. Please move where needed if required. I figured I could post some helpful part numbers/info along for those looking to replace a (2002) Dana 80 pinion seal and/or pinion yoke. Sometimes obtaining part numbers can be annoying and just plain difficult. I replaced my seal due it starting to leak more as than it had. Started leaking then stopped for awhile and now just started again so I bit the bullet and dove in for repairs. I have a *flanged yoke* aside from @smokeythedodge non-flanged yoke in his thread. I have attached pictures of parts/part numbers and including the carnage on my seal and yoke. Spicer Flanged yoke pn# 3-4-14391-1X Orielly's Pinion seal pn# 100727 If anyone wants an addition to the write up, including how to remove seal and install etc. lemme know. Need to start contributing more here and I have a couple of items in my pocket I could definitely explain and help with.

AC noise check ---2nd this... I remember seeing it somewhere but cant recall where.

Still trying to figure out my tuning problems...., everything else is up to par, however I am sitting at 11/12mpg Got work to do I'd suppose.

I been wanting to get a spare head, I had one but stupidly sold it 3 years ago, then I can rebuild/port and polish as I go, hell maybe even Mill the intake off. Have everything ready to bolt on. I guess at that point just a spare engine that's freshly rebuilt with all the above wouldn't be a bad idea either. I love doing that stuff anyway.

Electric vacuum pumps and direct drive PS pumps? I did not know this kind of sorcery existed! What a brilliant idea, not so easy on the pocket book, but definitely a route to consider next time since I already built vacuum pump and got a new PS pump...

Used blue loctite in my sets and still nothing yet... Also didn't have to touch anything on my box, just bolt and go... too easy.

I have one, I believe it helped a bit, also piece of mind. Anything to help the steering on these rigs... I'd suggest it.

I called yesterday and sent you a text. I'm available anytime today, unless I'm running a call at the fire statio.

Just me doodling around, how's this? I swear until I actually sit down with someone and go over this crap I'll never get it.... Hell, someone just come down and visit help this dummy figure it out, Ill get the hotel for ya and well have a merry ole time playing trucks.

As I have mentioned before, I just wanted to clarify I'm not looking for smoke I just know that's the by product of higher Hp goodies etc, and we use the quad to clean it up and make all that fuel more usable. Im just simply concerned that its not smokey/smoking what have you with or without a tune- this being that I have 6x13's, low boost numbers to add and my egts need to get in check! Even it being a 60hp tuner and the timing change availability, one would think 325hp injectors and a 64/71/14 turbo would have a little spunk to say the least. Am I incorrect on assuming this? I guess its worth mentioning that these injectors are from one of the sets I previously tried with the other pump, I returned the others and the 7x15's and kept a set of the 6x13's to use with the sovp, hopefully they aren't bad from that previous use on that pump?

My oh my, this truck is doggy. Such a huge difference in power - crazy. I used to have boost while driving around 7 psi on the hwy, now maybe 1 psi, and it doesnt spool at all - I goosed it and only got maybe 30 psi I moved the suggested timing from @Mopar1973Man down 1* and it seemed to help, but there should alot more we can do to improve, Im not sure on the other parameters. Truck is also really sluggish/doggy starting out. And for the life of me I just dont understand why there is NO smoke tuned or not tuned... I should say it more but Thank all of you for your help on this crazy adventure!
