Scary part is, none of us had any idea. Based on his roadside sobriety tests, the cop's assessment was low 10's.

.08 really, really doesn't take much.



Key word highlighted.

You *could* do it, but it would suck, be rough as shit, in no way competitive, and probably not even fun.

Obviously I'm building this thing with a bias towards hauling ass, but I do plan on rec wheeling with it too as much as possible. No reason at all why it won't be a fun, capable trail rig.

damn, he must have a hell of a tolerance built up.

I wonder what'll break first? From your questions earlier I'd bet on the transfer case or doubler input bearings or transmission input/mainshaft bearings :roflmao:

all you gots on a 95 clockspring is cruise and horn anyways, rig the horn to a pushbutton on the dash if you give a crap :dunno:

especially when you weigh like 120 lbs and drink like a fish.

Ugh.

I want to go pick up that NV4500 in case it sells, but I don't want to regret not waiting and finding a diesel version at the same price.

I hate buying/selling stuff.

Pull the string out and just XXXXing buy it already. We're sick of your whining. :scottm:

If it bothers you that much, you can buy a diesel input gear, bearing retainer, mainshaft, 5th gear, and 5th gear nut for $350.

edit: And the 5th gear nut wrench is less than $30.

I'm sick of my own goddamn whining.

That's when you know it's bad.

I'd almost compare myself to Anthony at this point.

Debating on deleting the doubler and swapping in a 6.34:1 first gear set from a Chevy trans.

That would give me about 80:1 crawl, which is about equivalent to my XJ at 90:1 due to the larger tires, which is about what my 2nd gear in low-low is.

Exploding planetaries, driveline length, and NP231 housings cracking are all reasons to do this. Plus the D300 will bolt right up by itself with a clocking ring.

Guess I'll hafta wait until I can get everything laid out in the chassis.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

that reminds me.

I can't XXXXing wait till I finish (well, start) my 2.5L/AX5/NP231/D30/D35 ghetto redneck buggy on 33s. I have all the parts now except the front axle and an assload of 2" poop pipe.

Oh, and need to figure out springs and shocks. It's gonna be light as hell.

I'm aiming to be able to tow it with my MJ.

So far I have $50 into the parts, for the trans and transfer case I bought off Nick. Motor came from your/colin's MJ, rearend from mine... the 30 I have but it's 3.07 geared, so I'll probably use the 3.55 geared one out of either my MJ (i.e. another of your old parts) or the one out of the 98 whenever I pull that one.

I think I can keep it under 500 bucks for the whole thing including poop pipe. And thrash the absolute piss out of it.

You've driven mine. It's 88:1 in 1st/low. And that's on 40s.

35s would be sweet with that.

I want the doubler mostly for the variety of gear ratios. 1:1, 2.72:1, 2:1, and 5.44:1.

2:1 would be sweet for racing, and 5.44:1 would be flat out stupid for rocks. 2.72 would probably be better for the rocks.

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

The sad part is, it would be cheaper for me to throw together a 440/727/NP208 then a 4.0/AW4/NP231 at this point in time.
