Are you going to get the 60's on before Clayton?

[KrazyKarl02]

Nope, just get it running.

ah, now your talking. sorry, im not up to date on the klogger status.

So the TTB stays on, breaks at clayton, then the you have the perfect excuse to go 1 ton. Besides, he got some extra axles from me, so he should be set! (I almost said he got some extra shafts from me!)

The Klogger is making good progress. I have finished the wiring for the engine and can now be started from the cab completely. It is a bit cold natured when you first start it in the morning, but once warm it starts right up. I have the fenders on and the core support is in place. I have filled the radiator with water to check for leaks. No leaks so far. It idles steady for 15 minutes plus. Just have to button it up. I went to pick a part and got a air cleaner, that helped idling a lot!!!

Things left to do:

Swap 10.25 in rear end, this is locked so much better
Bleed brakes
Finish bolting up lights and grill
Radio and CB type stuff
Drink

We will be working on it Sunday if anyone wants to hang out.

So how's it look? Is it gonna wheel Clayton in a meth-fueled rage? Any pics?

Jones, Luis, and Mike came over today and helped. Luis and I started by buttoning up the fenders. We then took it for a ride around the block. It sucked. Turns out the computer must have been learning. Cause it started working better. In fact it would even spin the tires if you power braked it. Filled the power steering up. While we were messing with the engine the upper radiator hose fell into the fan and cut in half, BIG FUN!!! So we got a new one and went back to work.

Installed the grill and lights (yes they work, even the blinkers and horn) Then we removed the old 9" and installed the 10.25. We put all new brakes, drums, hardware, etc.. on it. Put the wheels on. and it was time for nappy.

Still have to put the shocks on the rear axle, modify the rear drive shaft so it will fit (the 10.25 pinion is 4" closer), Bleed the front brakes, and bolt the hood on.

CLAYTON, HERE WE COME!

Oh only issue is when you are at idle and hammer it down, it stumbles real bad. We checked fuel pressure and lots of other things. At the end of the day I think the computer is still learning and the fuel injectors might be abit gummed up. We put some fuel injector cleaner in it. I am going to drive it every day after work this week. It runs good and when you ease into the throttle it has no problem.

Any ideas?

[jerryg79]

sweetness.

PS sorry i couldnt make it today. Ended up foregoing the gun show and doing some studying. I would have been down for Fri/Sat though. Did you have fun with carrie's car?

modify the rear drive shaft so it will fit (the 10.25 pinion is 4" closer),

Leave an hour earlier and we can do the driveshaft up here. I've got a a 1350 yoke so you don't have to use that bastard u-joint.

Hell I probably have enough crap to do a spare. What T-case does that thing have? and is it slip or fixed? I'm assuming it's a 208...
