id just like to say huge ups to Southwest Motorad for the work they've done on the RRockstar so far this year.
today they pulled another 5hp out of it with some top end tuning. my fuel mapping was all ove the place before and now the A/F graph is litterally a straight line at 13:1 from 10k to the limiter above 15k rpm. the midrange is also pretty straight but a little lean but i can tweak that myself.
my power curve is now basically a straight line from idle to about 14k rpm
and the price was so good i cant even mention it here.

Replaced a faulty caliper and threw new pads on... Just in time to see the bulge in my damn tire. Off to the tire store tomorrow.

modded a 8500 radar detector on to the dash. Not cheap, but I almost got a ticket for doing 10 over. I figure it will be cheaper to have it in the long run, of course I could just slow down a bit.

yeah, I think my truck was something like 7L too. Oh well, the more oil the better.
Your cummins can generally go 14,000km~ on a service interval though, so it's not that bad.

So my poor abused raptor 660 is getting some new moccasins today. The bearclaws clean out really well and throw lots of mud but they are super heavy and 2" taller, so I am trying some X-drives or something along the line.

Finally got the trans/t-case removed. What a whore of a fucking bitch to get it out. One heavy sob, doing it on the ground, with the truck still sitting at normal height. No jack or stands
edit: Looking back at this, I am going to HATE putting it back in. I broke the slave hydrolic line in the process, and I never could figure out how to disconnect it. Napa/lordco/crap tire dont carry new lines so tis a dealership only part. I think I may look into switching it over to a manual clutch. The bellhousing was full of copper metal shards, this meaning that the TB is probably fucked; even tho it feels good still. The output shaft also had ALOT of play, and grinded when turned by hand. No oil ever came out... http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b2...0410081948.jpg

With the new tires the quad handles better spins easier but was a lil wierd climbing in the sand with them. The dont dig as well they just spin more but i can grab another gear going up the hill due to the amount of spin

Replaced my U-Joints today with some nice Spicer greaseable ones.
I had a decent vibration over 100km/h and the OE joints had just a tiny bit of play in them.
