I've seen it in person... It's a nice ride. It's weird, cause you never expect to hear the woosh of air from the air suspension.

FWIW I was running a Luk clutch kit. I would have never suspected the clutch would spin like that. I have had clutch slip under high stress with this one before and others for that matter. Because of the weak tranny I don't want a clutch that will hold. It tends to kill the trannys faster if they hold.

A ZF 6 speed and a New Venture gear T-case from a Superduty.

Damn - Didn't feel like joining to those pics this morning. I almost did - No Time.

Been using a Ford 7.3 @ work to survey Corn Fields - Corns taller than I am here, Mann was that a blast yesterday until I nailed a washout and Eddie almost came thru the back window - Guess were getting a John Deer Gator w/ballooney tires to use today.

Never Corn Fed a Ford before - It seemed to like it.

Using a SuperDuty Flywheel/clutch kit and modifying the tranny mount will make it fit.
I will also have to use the SuperDuty Yoke at the T-case and fab a telescoping driveshaft. The SD doesn't use a slip yoke at the t-case. For now I put an Clutch kit from Xeddy. http://www.exedyusa.com/ It came with a new pilot bearing and the correct throwout bearing. I picked it up Friday afternoon and the truck is running as of 4:00 P.M. today. My wife wanted to go out last night.

A telescoping one eeeh ..A dual set up ? It would have to be - Shaft 1 telescopingly receives a Shaft 2 - via Mid-shift ? And a few tubes of grease

She could of went out .. Shoulduh sent her out to the beer store to fetch at-least a 12 for a clutch job. That's sort of a compromise

It would have to be the same kind of drive shaft as the front one, 2 piece telescoping. By the time the tranny was on I was wasted so going out seemed like a plan. Saturday I couldn't start till about noon.

I wonder what the difference in shaft length is , from stationary to boost. - Right before launch. Huh - Should look up that Fordgirl chick and have her measure that for me.

Just out of curiosity of course. ( :
