Top 7 reasons I'm not going to make it to Stoneboro for the DHRA pull
Well with the odds stacks against me, I finally have to accept that I'm not making it to PA... Heres the top 7 reasons I'm not making it to PA.

7. No AC
6. Alternator Doesn't Charge batteries
5. Transmission in LIMP mode (3rd gear only)
4. No Dash gauges (speedo,odometer,tach)
3.

2.


And the number one reason I won't make it to the Stoneboro PA DHRA pull:

All transfer case fluid.. Its cracked.

Here is the video. Edging up on 15PSI of boost:

I thought the same thing. Of course it's kind of a compliment, as we all know no Ferd or Chebby could ever make the torque to do that.

In all fairness, the crank sensor is to blame for all these symptoms:
6. Alternator Doesn't Charge batteries
5. Transmission in LIMP mode (3rd gear only)
4. No Dash gauges (speedo,odometer,tach)

brandon.

Dayum Garrett!!! I guess you will be making the appropriate changes to your posting signature now? I would define that as "carnage".

I about jumped out of the truck and strangled the announcer when he said "thats what happens when you take Daddy's truck to the truck pull"... I was more edit about that than having broke in the first place!

What happened Justin?

I hope I can get it fixed as well.. Hopefully within 2 weeks.. I gotta figure out if my transfer case can be welded.. I don't THINK anything internal is shot.
