    14 Bolt Question

    OK, just wanted to make sure I'm not going crazy... Its definitely a 14 bolt FF, I know because I've had it apart twice now, never had to replace the drums and still don't thankfully. Anyone have insight on the two different styles?

    14 Bolt Question

    alrighty, so that being said, if I wanted to convert over to disc brakes I should be able to use the kits for pre 87 axles... Yea, pulling the brake drums is "easy"... Gotta order a new parking brake cable so I get to pull both when that comes in. Thanks for the info, now I know I'll be...

    14 Bolt Question

    Alright, here goes nothing... Everywhere I read that the newer, 88 and up, 14 bolt FF axles should have drums that slip off the rear hub without pulling the axle shaft. Mine look like this. I have found several kits to convert over to disc brakes and need to know what will work for...

    Thanks, Without getting too carried away. I have some random photos from the build but only random, no real progression. No early photos either. When I repaint my lower strip the bumper will get redone again too. Wasn't thinking when I used undercoating, no UV resistance. But the lower...

    Yes, it was a portable dyno, only 3000lb rotating mass. It ran ~475hp/900ftlbs, I misplaced the readouts when we moved into the new apt. In the video the smoke goes black, clears up, and then goes black again. So its definitely air limited. Might be able to advance the timing a bit as well...
