Page 3 bitches

roademon · 02-20-2012, 01:27 AM

yea our limit is 110.

Stewzer55 · 02-20-2012, 01:31 AM

Actually, Its 65 MPH, but close enough.

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-20-2012, 08:57 AM

I've hit the governor in my s10 at 95 mph. And most 94s had 85 mph speedos. Ss's and a few other v6 trucks had 100 mph clusters. And yes, it has a tach. Pics later. It's from an auto though.

badmofo529 · 02-20-2012, 09:45 AM

i hit mine at 97. never again. its fine getting up to speed but its sketchy as soon as you let off the gas and start slowing down lol

Stewzer55 · 02-20-2012, 09:59 AM

how long did it take to reach the governor with a 2.2? :P

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-20-2012, 10:34 AM

Actually it didn't take that long really. I've hit it 3 times now, the first time scared the shit out of me though, because everything just went quiet all of a sudden and I was like WTF! I used GPS to verify my speed by the way.

I hit it once in Texas on a rural road (speed limit 70) and the other two times were in Michigan on I-75 in a rural area (speed limit 70).

***Sonomanclature*** · 02-20-2012, 01:57 PM

DO WANT DO WANT. and careful on 75 there is a section where the boys will nab you for going 2 over, been there done that.

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-20-2012, 02:01 PM

This is the only 100 mph 94 cluster I've had. I believe you had to have the CPI to get it. But I could be wrong. I've owned like 8 94 tach clusters now.

wildman ss · 02-20-2012, 03:25 PM

mmmmmm I want that cluster

Stewzer55 · 02-20-2012, 04:54 PM

Brent, get a 94 first.

BLah blah blah how much dammnit?

***Sonomanclature*** · 02-20-2012, 08:45 PM

I'm am planning on making a verry small run of TenthDigit R decals, those interested I want to know what colors you would like. Below are some that i have tossed together. The last one is white, let me know it if is too hard to see. cost/ decal is around 5$, it may be cheaper depending on how many i can get, size is about 6"x1.25".

Stewzer55 · 02-21-2012, 12:18 AM

Sean, I was thinking about getting some made too, just let me talk to the company first

roademon · 02-21-2012, 01:42 AM

how come mine isn't special

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-21-2012, 08:03 AM

It's not a 94. And it's special in a way, it's got you working on it.

Sean, not sure, I haven't actually decided to sell this cluster yet. LOL

roademon · 02-21-2012, 01:23 PM

but it's a 95 so it's not tenth digit R

Stewzer55 · 02-21-2012, 05:09 PM

Sucks to be you...

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-21-2012, 05:19 PM

94's are pretty amazing.

roademon · 02-21-2012, 05:53 PM

Oh well at least it's a Z

mostizzle · 02-21-2012, 07:29 PM

Raggity.

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-22-2012, 02:14 PM

Hey Sean, how's the honeybadger coming?

***Sonomanclature*** · 02-22-2012, 02:33 PM

slowly, i need to buy a grinder and some flap wheels, weld in the upper supports, winch base plate, and some other fine niggles.

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-22-2012, 02:33 PM

sounds like a plan.

***Sonomanclature*** · 02-26-2012, 05:59 PM

SO I have to order new Bushings before the shackles can be done, any one have a suggestion for place to get some polly's.

edit there are the rear leaf and frame bushing

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-26-2012, 06:15 PM

I replaced mine with rubber, whatever Autozone had in stock. They are hard to find unless you're looking online.

***Sonomanclature*** · 02-26-2012, 06:40 PM

on-line is fine, I wont be able to work on it again until next weekend, im going to have to burn the bolts heads off slide the shackles off, then burn out the old bushings. Going to have to buy a new ratchet to replace the one I broke today (craftsman here I come) and get a couple C clamps.

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-26-2012, 09:24 PM

I used a ball joint press on mine.

***Sonomanclature*** · 02-27-2012, 02:31 PM

So I was digging in some old folders, and came across something I had scribbled up when I first got the truck. I'm unsure if this will be a project or not, but here it is any way.

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-27-2012, 03:44 PM

Do it!

***Sonomanclature*** · 02-27-2012, 10:53 PM

the problem is weight, if i use 1" .125 wall square tube it will be heavy as ****. I don't really want to tag on much more weight that I already have.

If i could use 1" conduit it would weigh about half of the square tubing, but wouldn't be able to support much weight.

***deathphoenix99*** · 02-27-2012, 11:12 PM

If you make it correctly, it should be easy to support 100-200 lbs.

***Sonomanclature*** · 03-03-2012, 06:35 PM

Got my runnning light/ turn signals in today.

played with a few mounting options and this tunrs out the be about the only good one.. figures, if they were 2" shorter I could place them in the bumper.

any way what do you say, yey or ney
Running only

running left turn right

with headlights

and with all lights

Stewzer55 · 03-04-2012, 04:12 PM

Yay, brilliant mounting location!

***Sonomanclature*** · 03-04-2012, 04:53 PM

***deathphoenix99*** · 03-04-2012, 06:36 PM

Looking good man.

roademon · 03-04-2012, 06:46 PM

Now show it some love and give it a wax.

wax on... wax off...

***Sonomanclature*** · 03-04-2012, 07:32 PM

it wont get wax untill this summer probably. i still have to fix the paint on the hood and roof.

roademon · 03-04-2012, 08:37 PM

aw poor noma

***Sonomanclature*** · 03-07-2012, 01:37 AM

found out my cruise control works tonight, so that is nice, just have to get my AC going before my trip next month.

***deathphoenix99*** · 03-07-2012, 01:40 AM

trip? what trip?

***Sonomanclature*** · 03-07-2012, 03:06 AM

no idea

98lowerednewproje · 03-07-2012, 02:36 PM

See, I told you that the ABS shouldn't affect it!

roademon · 03-07-2012, 08:12 PM

and why wasn't cruise working? I finally got mine fixed on the noma, needed a cable adjuster, I think it works better than before with proper cable adjustment.

I have never tried to use it in 5th gear, the Resume accel portion doesnt work but i can get over that. just to get my AC in order.

roademon · 03-07-2012, 10:05 PM

what seems to be your ac issue?

***Sonomanclature*** · 03-07-2012, 10:20 PM

It just isn't cycling on, I'm going to check the connectors and see if it is getting power this weekend. before it was way over pressurized so i let some pressure off, and its still a no go. hopefully its just a bad connection.

***Sonomanclature*** · 03-07-2012, 11:08 PM

On a different areay of random shit I am working on, just went out ond got some info off my receiver hitch 400# toung 4000# trailer 600# WD toung 6000# wd trailer. made me LOL but at least I don't have to buy a new hitch.

This is why I was researching, Planning a weekend jaunt this summer, and since we have it and it hasnt been used in about 5 years, why not

21ft 3700# roughly empty.

my yard looks liek shit

***deathphoenix99*** · 03-08-2012, 09:28 AM

Sounds like fun man.

roademon · 03-08-2012, 08:11 PM

That's going behind the noma? what is the tow rating on our trucks anyways? Been wondering if I could pull our horse trailer.
