Topic: Deadpilot's Whited Out Convert "The Beast"

Lol. Good one. But I don't think white tape will fix the speedo problem

[Deadpilot]

So was finally able to get working on the X again today. Got the custom Trans mount in took care of the wobble. Got the brakes bleed out and have most of the pressure back. Just have to bleed them again. Hooked up the front abs sensors and even though I don't have tone rings up front I got my speedo back and some warning lights are gone. But I blew a hydraulic line so tomorrow I'll look at that more and see what happened and where it broke.

But I'm getting closer I think.....

Here's a pic of the mount.

That's a pretty hefty looking mount

With a np205 behind the stock Trans I kinda need it

[Deadpilot]

She is alive!!! Drive train wobble gone for the most part. Very little is there. Brakes are good. Speedo is working not sure how off it is yet. I put a new battery in a blue top in with 900 CCA.
Tomorrow the X goes in for a trans fluid flush and then Tues it will get its alignment.

So major set back. Got the X to the shop barely.  I have a bad steering issue. It pulled right then I turned right then it over corrected it self. So I had a buddy who builds off trucks look at it. And he said that he could tell the angle of the caster was off. I told him I had it set at 7

Sorry to hear about the setback.

[Deadpilot]

It's all part of the process. It's sometimes a pain

[Deadpilot]

So there other day I went to move my X and I can't get the shifter to move into gear unless I use that shift lock tab thing. Doesn't unlock with the brakes pressed like it should. Also now my horn doesn't work when I hit it but it goes off when I locked the X. I have no idea what is going on now.
Any have an idea other then she is just pissed off

That blows!
    If you ever want an extra set of eyes for anything, let me know.
    Hope it's just a dead battery causing mayhem.

Brand new battery so it's not the battery. So I think it's fsm time. I hate that thing. 
cool thanks. I may need an extra set soonish.

So quick update since it's been awhile. I have figured out why a bad wondering in the front. My panhard bar and steering link were parallel to each other which was correct. But the issue I forgot about was they should have close as possible to parallel to axle/ground. So that will get fixed next week once I get the steel in the make the fixes.
Then my drive train vibration was caused by the trans bolts being stripped out. I guess the factory bolt holes in trans don't like the added weight of the divorce transfer case. Yes that is on its own mount but it all kinda flows together with the weight.

So maybe next week she'll be driving down the road again.

[Deadpilot]

No interference with travel. The view makes look closer then it is. I'll take better pics tomorrow when it's all put together.
