K. Post lots of pics.... Question, whats the point of spinning 5k with an automatic?

Yea, and what frame are you planing on using? This is a very unrealistic biuld fr a daily driver. Im sorry but thats how i feel. My DD cummins spins 3200 and makes more than enough power to get me where i need to go. To spin 5k is just unnessisary stress and wear.

I have a bunch but i would fix yours as it will be cheaper

Well i tried to edit my title so i did not look like an iliterate fool but it didnt work. Typing when tired is'nt a good thing. Thanks for the input guys.

5K kit......:cookoo: Do you have much experiance with the B series? Your sweet spot is right around 1800 rpm. to simply swap a cummins in the truck with nothing else done to compensate the ratios would be a waste of time and $.

I have seen firestone and Motor wheel. The motor wheel i have seen are rivited.

I like the bridge truck. I know where there are some here in michigan. Love to own one.

Mabye, but didnt think it would matter being the opinion i am asking for is from inside the truck. I am the one doing the work and buying the parts, Therfore the rest shouldnt matter. I dont want to come across as an azz i just didnt want a bunch of "advise" on how it should be done. Just want...

Buy 2, one for parts. Wait. never mind. they ALL have the same problems...........lol

Smoke coming from the epoxy on the top indicated the worst. Wish it was the link.

Shut down solenoid failed, opinions needed. So the shutdown solenoid on my 1028 has let got. I want to know what you guys think about my replacment options. Replace the solenoid with the factory electronic one, OR set it up like the deuce with a mechanical pull cable. I have the cable from the...

Oh yea, FWIW. It is not a good idea to run a Detroit Locker in an axle with DRW if you plan on using it to tow on the street more than off road.

Yes & no. If you pull the hair pin clip you run the risk of droping / loosing the spring, bushing, washer and clip And you have to lay on the ground.

Looks like the original rear axle to me. Look at the picks, has those stupid dually spacers on it.

Good find but im not really diggin it. Poor thing needs to be saved and put back to stock, or correctly made into a dually.

Loosen the bolt on the shift linkage rod (where the collumn comes through the fire wall) and shift it into N. Not nessesary to pull the driveshaft to move it.

Did you guys have the abilities to machine unobtainium there?

I hear you have been "getting some quotes". Have you made it home ok? Personaly if i where in your shoes, I would toss the auto and slam some sort of OD or 2xOD manual trans in there. That is one way I would definatly give some respect to an A3. Thing would be sweet.
