    Boomer wanted some Pics - Cragar SS

    Had to return 1 for a flat spot on the edge, so the truck is on jackstands. Impatiently waiting for UPS....... Sorry about the resolution as I'm dial-up. Old School rules.:rock: -J

    I'd be interested in how 5.13 gears fit vs. 4.88's

    Hey Patrick... I appreciate all the input you had and posted regarding your install. I was just about to put the parts in that I got from Unitrax when your post came up. I read that your mechanic was having a time getting it sorted, and then voila, fixed after talking to Carl at Unitrax. I...

    I'd be interested in how 5.13 gears fit vs. 4.88's

    To get the 4.88's to work, you use the Unitrax carrier which shifts the ring over to the small pinion (about 1/4 inch). 5.13's must use even smaller pinion as the ring on the 88's is tight in the housing. To get the 4.88's to work, you must ever so slightly grind down one tooth at it's peak to...

    4.88 gears instructions

    Just received my 4.88 set from Devin at Unitrax. I'm tech savvy and have my own lift, press, etc. Worked for years as a mechanic and wrenched on superbikes in the 80's so I'm ready to do this myself as I've done numerous GM swaps in my youth. I putter around the garage now for fun. Looking...

    Shifter Wars B&M vs X-Metal

    B&M....no emails on the web they'd like to keep it personal, so they request phone calls. Unfortunately, I've never, ever gotten through to a human. Leave a message, they may call back.

    Wheels: Going Old School. Cragar new SS

    Nice wheels KMC's are nice stuff. Same price as the Cragars, but they don't have the history to me as the old ss's did. Otherwise, I think that they are great looking wheels too. Couldn't find any bolt-circle info on them, just that they will build them to your requested offset using the...

    Wheels: Going Old School. Cragar new SS

    It's tough to pull-the-trigger tough to pull, but made easier when I look at the pitted flaking china-clones that grace my otherwise perfect truck now. I wanted Foose MHT Nitrous, but those guys are lame as in zero before sale service. God what could I expect after the sale? I had cragars ss...

    Wheels: Going Old School. Cragar new SS

    Cragar just offered a new 22" wheel in one piece aluminum that mimics the old SS wheels some of us old-timers had back-in-the-day. I pulled the trigger...and now I'm waiting. Pic for your veiwing pleasure........

    Big Ben Accident

    How about if the NFL made helmets optional? That would be interesting. On the bike, you have to plan for the hit... but I don't like being told to. What if all stairs are declared unsafe and the govt required you to wear a helmet whenever you went up and down the existing stairs, and...

    4.88 or 5.13's???

    It's not a hard job..... The only special tool really is the pinion depth gauge. Once the pinion is installed properly with the crush ring and properly tourqued bearing drag, the ring gear is set for backlash, check your tooth pattern just to make sure the pinion and ring gear adjustments are...

    Chip Foose and MHT Wheels Cust Serv. SUCKS

    No response to email inquiries...no return of calls. After tileing through Foose phone menu tree, finally get to "wheel push 3". Response is: "we can't answer questions about Foose wheels, goodbye." Finally got through to a receptionist at MHT california and she says "no one is here....I...
