The driveshaft is back again, this time with 1310 u joints in both ends, it keeps getting shorter. Now the weak link is likely the clutch. This upgrade took a few turns from my initial plan, but worked out just fine. Like the song says: “you can’t always get what you want, but sometimes you get what you need”, certainly applies here. I had focused on using an Explorer setup and instead, took a step back, reevaluated, and moved forward with the Ranger package. Glad I did, it seems now like the obvious choice. I shared this with the vintage van crowd and it was met with approval. |

Took the van for a road test the other day when we were experiencing a dry spell and there was a remarkable reduction in noise coming from the back of the van. While it was still on the jackstands, I ran the van up to 100 mph in high gear for a brief moment and it was much smoother than before- it’s probably the only time the needle ever has seen that half of the speedometer! The Pos-e-traction works too, I’m hoping the grass grows back. |
