That's not a pass I would take in his rig.Just take plenty of ammo for hunting bison when you get to Wyomia. You gotta kill 4 of them to get like 3 pounds of meat is what I remember from the game.
And apparently don’t go this way.
That's a steep fucker.Just take plenty of ammo for hunting bison when you get to Wyomia. You gotta kill 4 of them to get like 3 pounds of meat is what I remember from the game.

That'll take a while to fix.Just take plenty of ammo for hunting bison when you get to Wyomia. You gotta kill 4 of them to get like 3 pounds of meat is what I remember from the game.
And apparently don’t go this way.
It is a beautiful drive though, in a car.
Ya, it's fucked. What's more fucked is the traffic that's now coming through my area to get to Jackson Shithole.And apparently don’t go this way.
Yup, that's the road. Hwy 22 in Wyoming and Hwy 33 in Idaho.
That's the one. It closes a dozen times or so every winter from avalanche.
I'm half surprised they don't just close it for the winter. It'd sure fawk up access to Jackson if they did though.
Do you have a big-ass external trans cooler? Also a shift-kit to raise line pressures will help. I got 252k out of my 4R100 behind a mildly tuned 7.3 PSD, using this cooler.
It's got a significant aux trans cooler, no shift kit though
Temps are 90% of the battle on these.
Got a gauge on it?
I need to go pull the rear differential, again.
What’s wrong with the rear end? What rear axle does it have? You said axleS earlier. Is this thing big enough it’s got a tag?
Call me if you have issues.
I'm messing with the rear end. D70, no tag. S would've been a typo.
Will do, are you still traveling the region for work? It'd be next weekend before I'm out the door
Yeah, it’s hard to get proper bearing pre load on a D70 without a case spreader. Are we talking real fine glitter or pretty good flake? If it’s the Uber fine stuff I wouldn’t be all that concerned. I don’t base success off of glitter in the case but by how the wear pattern on the gears look and if the bearing races still look good. Break in on new parts always nets a little stripper dust. No noise is good but noise might not make up to where you are 30 feet forward of it.I'm messing with the rear end. D70, no tag. S would've been a typo.
This is my first adventure doing a dana differential. I greatly prefer the drop out differential that I'm used to
Didn't catch any noise, but concerning amounts of glitter on the first lube change about 350 miles.
Just swapped out the abs tone ring and filed it down to see if I can get my psom functional above 35mph.
Also spend the last several hours trying to get more shims between the carrier bearings and the housing. Not what I'd call successful. Probably good enough to make this trip, probably not good for much more
And the trailer just got the tongue welded back on with some scab pieces, this will be the first time it's had a car on it since. With the extra length from the motorhome vs the truck, it's going to see more tongue flex than typical.
Of course, anything can happen. Those are just my two concerns that I'm aware of going into the adventure
About 8 to 10 thou backlash...in a few spots. I really have myself convinced not enough preload was letting it open up more when under use.
Just add some of this, problem solved.Have a case spreader, still failure
It was all fine stuff, so it's all from the gears. Without enough preload, I'm concerned the gears will wear out rather quickly
The next time I do this, I'm going to remove the axle. Way too little space, can't hardly roll over or swing a hammer under there.
I'm home this week, next weekend, and first part of the following, but yes still going to Boise every other week, for the next two years.
