Hey guys and gals..
Just checking in to see whats up. First off I like to apologize for the lack of a Spring meet this year. I personally been through hell and back. Things are finally starting to get back to normal...
Any way hows everything? projects?
Over the winter I readjusted my rockers, freshened up my ignition system, lowered the front a good bit , got a new set of street tires.(M&H325's) and got some smaller fuel jets for my nitrous system.(my 150 shot jets had me @ 10.8A/F)

Hey bryan, good to hear things are starting to get back to normal for you.
I have my last final in 40 minutes, then two projects to start that are due on wednesday. Then I have time off until next wednesday when I start work near my hometown. I'll be around all summer. Probably trying to make an intake manifold to throw the blower on top of the motor where it belongs in the machine shop at work. Know anyone who will TIG weld for cheap?

My truck got hit by a drunk driver the other night :/ Otherwise doing great. I was looking forward to a new top end this summer and probably a whole handful of other mods. I've never really been to any of the NE meets (in fact I've only met Sean) but I think this summer would have been a good time to unveil it. Hopefully the frame is straight and I can continue on with my plans.
It's good to hear things are starting to look up for you again, welcome back.

yeah man anytime..
I got your PM about the Rear. Sorry I am of no help. I never had my carrier out. I did however replace the clutches while it was still in the rear PITA. another thing to check is to make sure the mounts are in the same location before you go to town. not sure in the dak and rango share the same mounting points.
However if you still haven't gotten it apart, load it up in your truck and head on down... I guarantee we will get it stripped down that day:biggthumpup:

Yea the mounts and everything are the same. I got a Durango and the R/T so yea lol. Thing is it's an "extra" rear I'm going to build then swap in so it's almost entirely apart except I can't take the carrier out! What a paint the ass let me tell you...this rear is filthy inside the axle tubes too! I'm either going to have to get it acid dipped or give it to a place to clean or come up with some process for me to do.
Once that's all done I'm going to get new rotors, calipers, LPW diff cover & brace, paint the entire rear and either swap my trac-loc and gears from my R/T or get new gears. Is the OEM trac-loc rebuildable?

Hey Bryan, glad to hear you're doing well. Work has been running me ragged the last few months. I'm out in Japan at the moment, get back on Sunday. Then it's back to work on the truck, gotta try to get it finished up before they send me out again LOL
I definitely want to get together at Cecil or Atco once the truck is running. :biggthumpup: And then of course Carlisle in July :rockwoot:

No kidding, I've got some serious catching up to do. I won't say definitely, cause that usually comes back to bite me, but I am shooting to have it running well before Carlisle, hopefully by the end of this month. :biggthumpup:

Waaaay Upstate NY here. Waiting to order a set of tires and then get my Long tube headers installed. Need to make a cross over pipe too. Then save up for my SCT scanner to install my M1 2bbl. Trying to get some work done this summer so when my busy season kicks in during the fall and winter I can start saving for a house again.
I've Meet Shawn (1evilrt) and Kevin (RTspeeddemon) in the last few months. I would like to make it to Mopars and E Town, to meet everyone else, but will deff be at Carlise for the east coast Dakota R/T meet!!!

Are you asking if he's talking about 2010? Negative...July 10-12 of this year is the All-Chrysler show at Carlisle. There's a thread in the Northeast section and it looks like there's over 25 R/Ts going all ready. I plan on going but haven't put my name on that list just yet. Sounds like it's a blast...

Bryan, good to see things are coming around for you! You know the story with my truck, its apart (I'm starting to feel like Chris with the PT) but finally starting to come together. The TurboTechnologies header finally came in and I picked up a snow performance Meth kit. Currently looking for a Gt42R of some sort then I got some exhaust fabrication to do. But before all that she is going to Mass for a fresh coat of Solar Yellow and and many new body parts at my buddy's body shop. :D
I did manage a new best out of the SRT8 though :rockwoot:
