Re: off to meet busted for some crawling!

Well it was a good test run. Truck runs better than I was expecting. Had a few problems:

Lost a shock bolt...used string to hold it together
Had an upper link work loose
First 8 cell 2/3A pack dumped in 2 min, second pack got so hot it melted the shrink wrap. Seems ok though.

CJ broke his winch cable...good since I could use the string to hold my shock on
CJ broke a couple link ends

Things to change:

Need different oil in the shocks, maybe a spring change to counter torque twist
Needs more lead

Good:

I love Dig
7T pullers are the bomb
Dig is awesome
MSD solids kick butt with M3 moabs and Red Kreepys
7T pullers rock with Dig

Re: off to meet busted for some crawling!

Looks like a 9t pinion is in order for the 2.2, as the 7T puller is an amp whore and draws down the 2/3As too fast.

Re: off to meet busted for some crawling!

too fast like 5 min fast!

too fast like 5 min fast!

Yeah, way to fast The pack that went nuclear still had 8V when I got home, just no amps.

Re: off to meet busted for some crawling!

thats no good!!

Re: off to meet busted for some crawling!

thats no good!!

Hence the 9t pinion to help give it some more gear reduction to help out.
