Keep up the nice work!!! Are you looking to pull this season or next year's season?

 

We are shooting for to make it 1st pull at TS on May 9th 2009.

Dale

 

Unless they changed the rules, your final drive must be FULLY ENCLOSED on planetary set-ups.

Going rock block?

 

There is less strain on the drive line with the plantaries I looked at others and they didn't have them fully inclosed.The NADM don"t have that rule.

Dale

 

You mentioned NTPA and that is the rules I learned and used to inspect pulling units.
NADM rules have not matured to handle planetary drives. NTPA has a 40 year history of modified tractors.

You are doing a fantastic job on your pulling unit and don't want you to have a great pulling unit that the NTPA guys will blow off. I too would like to see diesel added to the NTPA 2wd class.

Drop me a PM. If you have any questions on NTPA, I will do my best to answer.

Fueling around" sent you a PM Looking forward to talking to you we want to try to meet as many org,rules as we can I personally don't see why it is so importent on the planitiers rear end to have the rear shaft inclosed.and not for a standerd rearend.
