Whats wrong with the rear pinon angle?

 

[RichD]

I'm aware of the pinion angle issue and have two steps to address it, I plan to rotate and remount the rear axle and am looking for a NP205 to replace the BW1356.........just need some time. As to the 44's holding up......time will tell..lol

BADASSSS truck!!!!!!!!!!!! that's what i wanta do in the end with my 98....... you should turn up the P-pump and take a video o that thing blowing some crazy coal..............

What did you end up paying for the 4BT swap I want to diesel my beater with one as it should stomp the 2.9 but I dont really know what it would run.

 

[RichD]

today i pulled the rear axle, cut off and then remounted the leaf spring mounts on the tubes. Rear pinion angle much better now, still looking for a NP205. Took the exhaust stack off shortened it and slash cut the top at about 45 degrees and put it back on, looks much better.

I paid 1600 for the motor, 500 for the adapter plate and 100 for the tranny and T-case.

 

[88BII got it for $250]

sweet ride man.

Isnt there a law against painting a Cummins Cat Yellow?

Where are you at? I have a NP205 I'm looking to sell.

 

[RichD]

I am in Delaware, I would guess shipping would be way too much.

specs on the bumper really like it

 

[RichD]

the stinger bar is for a jeep TJ and the bumper I made from 2x6 tubing, angle cut and capped the ends.
