Team V8

Aww, that ain't nothin another CV joint could't fix. :wierd:
 
okay... so i picked up some DIY intake pieces and a new K&N air filter. i plan on boxing it off like a CAI over in the corner with some tin.

talked to tyler, he picked up some hubs and rotors for me. will have to make sure they all work out but i might have my axle ready to part out and get this one under there within the next week. :D yay! hear that bob???

You can also get new hubs and rotors with studs and races at autozone/advance for $30-40 a piece or so.

Um, no dude. Try $200 a piece for hubs and rotors. And that doesn't include bearings or wheel seals. Its all good. I was able to get everything for he needed including some spare electric modules for $40. Not a bad deal at all.
 
Well, the 1st half of Team V8 (Blakes YJ) now has a permanently mounted radiator, e- fan, and transmission/power steering coolers! It should be shake-down-able after just a few more loose ends are tied up.
 
So RSOR has most of the wiring done on the motor, its turning over now. Just gotta get a couple other things wired and tie up a couple other ends. Hopefully we can get some pics of the "quality" work being done lol ;)
 
i got some extra hubs and rotors from a TJ... if anyone wants them?

Guess they discontinued that part I was talking about. It used to be you could go to Autozone and get the Ford 5x5.5 hub with the rotor attached with wheel studs and the inner races installed. Still had to get bearings so the races installed didn't matter much. But still the combination was less than $50 I know. I wanna say more like $35. I used those when I built a D44 for my TJ and got the same ones for the 8's D44. Course that was atleast 3 years ago or so. Oh well. It was really a nice deal.

You can still get the hubs from Advance, but they're $40 w/o the rotor. Not that it matters now. Just throwing it out there though if the need ever arises.

Found a picture of them. Notice how nice and shiny :)

Looks like more fun than a barrel full-o-monkeys. Now that right there looks clean.
 
Clean = the only way RSOR knows how to do anything... :D

It will look a lot better once I get the looming up and mounted to the firewall.
