Update on BA 409

[yellow wagon]

I learned long ago that with boots, you get what you pay for. I have a pair of Red Wing heritage boots I have had for 10 years. The quality and comfort is amazing. Been resoled twice and the leather feels like a worn in baseball glove. I used to buy cheap work boots. Never again! Best part? Made in the USA in Red Wing, MN

Looking good James. Are you running 4:11's?

 

[La Hot Rods]

Going with 4.56 as I have been running.

Excellent progress .

Can I be the lucky guy to scuff her up and put a coat of paint on her?

Hopefully those new gears have been ordered? Any other parts we need for the Meltdown in 2 weeks?

Cheers!

Get two can's James!!!!!!!! What do you think will break next James????? Isn't that what racing is all about to see what you can't break the next time!!!!! .....

I hope it just wears out tires now.

Gears should show up Thursday........Toms not going to like the bill for this stuff.
I did also order the solid pinion spacer so I can do away with the crush sleeve.
Hope to get measurement for drive shaft today and track bar mount located.
And maybe some paint on it.

 

[La Hot Rods]

I brought home a smoke poll (drive shaft) I had settin at the shop in town and what do you know.......It looks like it will work.....need to trim out the center and cut away the lower rear of the X.
Must be livin right.
Just need to see that I can get a U joint to fit from one to the other.

 

[La Hot Rods]

Drive shaft was to long......drop it off at Dr Shaft.....The fedex man just put the sticker on the door and never rang the bell.....

 

[Iowa 409 Guy]

Didn't expect it to be easy did you James?

 

[La Hot Rods]

Well Dave I didn't think it was going to be a cake walk but sure would be nice if the delivery guy would of put in a little effort on his part.

 

[Iowa 409 Guy]

Seems as though almost every thing a guy does is a fight anymore.

I can live with this.

The pinion looks too deep in the pictures. Don't want to see you have problems.
