Nice! Good luck man. 👍

It's got the gm 14 bolt front and rear with dana 60 kingpins. The spindles and hubs are dana 60s front and back. That way I'm using the same parts all of the way around. Also, using d60 spindles in the rear means I can replace the spindle easily if it get damaged, and the rear axles are full float instead of semi float.

@@irionmotorsports 👍👍ten four sounds like a durable set up ..glad it works good for you 👍👍👊

I didn't think of that. It would be a great way to get your engine cleaned up cheap. I usually send it to a machine shop and get it surfaced and pressure checked if I have it to that point though.

@@irionmotorsports 👍👍...it was a engine parts that were lying around for year's and all rusty

Thanks man!

Sorry man, I don't have time to make them. You should be able to have any local machine shop make them for you. Tell them to get in touch if they have any questions.

I pay for the mid tier package, because I like to download offline maps for the area that I'm racing. I could work around it by hotspotting before the race and loading the map, but if something goes wrong I'm going to lose my map. I don't even need a gps for the races i'm doing now. I mostly use it so my co-driver an I are practiced up in case we ever get out to KOH. I think it's worth having if you're racing or off-roading in places that don't have cellular. There are plenty of other gps apps that you can use that have free, or cheaper off road maps, but I haven't found one that works with my Dual XGPS160 satellite receiver, and the ipad doesn't refresh fast enough for racing. You could always try it for a year and see how much you use it.

@irionmotorsports Thanks again man! That is the exact info we were looking for. We owe you one bud!

Thanks man! Anker has some really good sales on their solix units. If you're getting one from them wait for a good deal.

Thanks man! Glad it was helpful.

Sorry man, I can't. I just do fabrication for fun. I'm busy with my full time job 50-60hrs a week, plus dealing with kids and keeping my racecar running. If you get into it and have any questions, I'm happy to help.

Probably, depends on the motor and what you're looking to accomplish.

I think it's only for the 5' bed. If you want more info, you should send them an email. It's possible they may be coming out with one in the future.

Sure thing! Thanks

Thanks 👍

Nice, have fun!

Thanks, man!

Did you watch the whole video? I'm pretty sure I showed the air system install towards the end of the video.

I just use the cnc tip with the recommended consumables. It should have the part numbers on top of the machine and in the manual.

Yeah, it was the combination of the extra hp and weight. I was regularly exceeding 25k, sometimes as high as 30k. You could do that with a stock truck without issues, but when you add 200-300 hp it doesn't hold up. The np 205 is the toughest transfer case that ever came stock in a vehicle. I run one in my race car too, and I've never had a single issue with them.

Yeah, they're the yukon chromoly 35 spline

Thanks! I have the Avata 2 now with the new goggles and RC. They have really good sales on the combo. It's a really nice setup if you can swing it. The only downsides of the avata 2 is the single axis stabilization and short battery life.

Haha, I'd forgotten about that. I had to go watch the video again.

That's something that I considered, but there's not much of an advantage in this case and lots of downside. This motor puts out more hp than I need, so I don't need the little bit that I would gain from a dry sump. The weight difference would be negligible. The biggest downside is adding a number of high probability failure points to my car. I would have to a scavenge pump with a belt drive to the bottom of my motor where mud and rocks could get in. If that belt gets destroyed I'm done. There's also a whole bunch more hoses and fittings that can fail. The whole point of using a Cummins in the first place is the simplicity and durability. Also, I'm a cheap SOB.

Thanks!

I just found some roof racks laying outside my shop one day. They had been sitting there for nearly a year, so I made up some adapters to make them fit the cap. I think OVS is supposed to be coming out with roof racks for these caps.

Thanks man, just finished my first race since this project, and had no issues. 👍

@@irionmotorsports Wonderful to know. Thanks for the update

Actually, I do specialty hardwoods. I do all of the fabrication and equipment maintenance in house, so I've been building and expanding the shop for the last 20 years. Most of the equipment I picked up cheap at auction and fixed up. Never had anyone to teach me how to use them. I just picked it up one project at a time. Watched a bunch of youtube videos.

Thanks 👍

Thanks 😁

Well man, you got lucky. It turns out I still have the slug that I cut out of the center of that plate sitting on my lathe. It is 1.25" thick.

@@irionmotorsports well how about that? I’ve been wanting to do this swap on my 03 commonrail but didn’t wanna put a sae2 bell housing and hack up a bunch of my floor a little bit I can deal with though and how much did you have to shorten your input shaft? If you remember maybe it’s in the video and I didn’t hear it?

I didn't shorten the input shaft at all. I calculated that the 1.25" plate would make it so I wouldn't have to modify to input shaft.

@@irionmotorsports boy that sure is good to know I thought you had shortened it I have looked at so many threads on it it’s been a catastrophe on the hydraulic part do you have the part numbers for the concentric throw out bearing inside the bellhousing?

Yeah it's a0022506615. It's from a mercedes atego. There's a bleeder adapter and a line adapter that they don't usually come with it. If you can find a parts diagram for the atego, it will show you what you need.

Thanks man! It drives me nuts when I watch a tire review and it's just some guy riding it around for 20 min. Appreciate the feedback.

@@irionmotorsports hey man have you ever messed around with making a GTR? I’m curious what the XR hub and tire would feel like on a GT. I might have an option for that before i can save up the money for a 5” hub.

No, the gts is much better suited to the n52 magnets. If you put an XR hub on it you would lose a lot of torque. I'm a heavy rider an often carry heavy items and kids on my onewheel, so the torque is the most important thing for me. I don't have a gt, but you probably wouldn't notice much of a difference in torque. I just don't know if it would be worth it. You're only gaining 1/2" in diameter which is 1/4" of sidewall. If you try it out, let me know how you like it.

My kid has a 16edrive now that he's put well over 800 miles on it. Haven't had any issues other than a broken chain.

Thanks. I tried to spend a little more time explaining things in this video.

Thanks man!

What do you have, and what are you thinking about getting?

No problem!

My parents took it to florida last week. No issues so far. Had a lot of rain and no leaks.

What kind of roof rack do you have on it?

I had some roof racks that someone left outside my shop. I just ripped the feet off of them and made some aluminum brackets. I think OVS is coming out with some roof racks for the cap. I also bought a set of the cheap amazon roof racks for the truck.

No, there is a collar on the bottom (rod) end. The collar slides up and there is a snap ring under it. Once you remove the snap ring, the collar and springs will slide off.

Thanks man. I finally got it off with lots of pb blaster. Its so rusted Im going to have to ship them in this time@@irionmotorsports

Are you sure? The 655 just came out around two weeks ago. I ordered it the day it dropped and made this video the day it arrived. Maybe you had the 555? I agree on the grip. I messaged tfl the other day and they said they will be coming out with a 5" pioneer soon. I'm hoping I can run that year round instead of the vega.

I have the Vega and 555 the only issue I have with the Vega is it's smaller circumference. At 18 my board thought I was at 20 and hitting haptic buzz

There was no way to put a clutch brake in since I used the dodge clutch which is a push style. I just dealt with it. It's not hard to get used to. I would rarely stop at lights. Just put it in first and let it creep. It also didn't take quite as long to slow down as a big truck. Probably to smaller lighter clutch disks helped.

Thanks man! My son is riding the 16e now. He rides it every day. Sometimes we'll go for 12+ miles in one ride. They hold up really well and there's lots of parts available. Sometimes you can find cheap ones on ebay that need a little repair. There's good deals to be found on facebook marketplace too. I picked mine up cheap enough that I can probably sell them in a few years and get most of my money back.

Ok, I've updated it.

No, I haven't. They look fun, but most of the riding I do is offroad. A lot of the trails are really rough.
