Just Plain Stupied


yep...dicy......that's what it does to the '36 FRONT & REAR when I have the shocks connected in pairs.....but not any more.....Waaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahhahaaaaaaaa


i gotta get back out there & finish up......


EDIT: tonite........test drove '36 an hour ago with air shocks independent of each other....rides even better now over all kinds of bumps......no wheel-hop at all....I'm running 50 psi in each shock ( was running 30 psi per pair)........truck is even smoother than before.....Waaaaa!


But.......the torque converter still isn't locking once the truck goes into 4th gear & I ease up on the gas pedal.....no problem....as soon as the V.A. dru.......meds wear off a little, I'll find the problem (i probably hooked up a pressure switch backwards)

if he spills the coffee tho, he could sue them and make them put cup holders in for him:stirthepot:

Do you think the settlement would be enough to put the robotic rising/lowering heated cup holders in?
 
Hyennas !!!!!!!!

I spent a couple hours under the truck changing weights & springs....now it shifts into 4th at 45mph under light accelleration (instead of the usual 65 mph!)......

However, it will still spin em when it hits 2nd gear under medium accelleration....I think I'll just leave it that way.....Waaaaaaaaaaahahahahaa

I re-re-re-wired the xmsn again...it's officially getting 12 volts to the lock-out pressure switch, but a-parrottly I have the unlock vacuum switch connected to the wrong source on the carb.....there's still no lock-out at 60mph......

no problem.....the drugs will wear off soon enuff....
