^^^^^ No worries, you look like you've got a few more details in there.DICK DICER posted:The wobble to the flywheel Can't me more than a half inch off. Totally within spec................ I guess it'd be a motherfucker to have to take the engine and/or tranny out to check that there isn't some poo poo in between flywheel and crank snout. Or re-torque crank bolts.

It only has to make it to Florida. I'd just drive it like that and hope it doesn't break.

At this stage of the game, basically impossible. I know for a fact Danno and I torqued the flywheel bolts with loctite so I don't loving know what happened

Did it have the same problem last year? In other words, did you look underneath with engine running, and NOT see that last year?

Was there oil in the trans for that video? Noise could be dry bearings in there. Wobble doesn't seem that bad, I would see how the clutch works on the first drive, if it's all fucky and grabbing unevenly then I'd worry. Does that setup have a pilot bearing in the end of the crank that the input shaft from the trans went into? If so was it bronze or a sealed ball bearing?

The clutch kit came with one and I believe it was bronze. Also how the gently caress are people reading this thread and not knowing that I bought the drat thing?

I'm trying to explain to my girlfriend why I'm spending so much time cackling at my laptop instead of doing my boyfriendly duties over here, and I'm unable to summarize this entire story without going off on 20 tangents; are there any good summaries so far in this thread? Don't forget the companion thread, Requiem for a Jeep. (The relevant part begins here.)

Flywheel wobble doesn't look that bad, to late to be worried about it anyway.

If Dave and Danno and Sims can get a truck running in only 2 years, what the hell am I doing with my life. I don't even own a truck. I feel the need to buy a beater truck and some GWAR albums.

Clearly you need to find the local CNC machinist and have them made out of Billet. It's the only way to be sure.

How the hell do the brake lines even connect to those? I've never seen a connection inside the brake housing before.
