I broke a Spicer u-joint on the last pass of the night about a week ago at the track. The prep was really good and I was trying to leave up against the convertor. Gonna pull the transmission, check the sprag and replace the 8 3/4 with the Dana 60 I mentioned a few months ago. The cone sure-grip lasted all of 2,000 miles and was starting to give up the ghost so it was time.
I never planned on making this much power or I never would have built and 8 3/4. The new Dana will have a spool.
The best thing was this was the first time I had trailered the car instead of driving it so it made for less of a hassle.
Good thing you just bought that new trailer! Mmmmmm.....Dana 60....
