Re: Tom Woods NP242 SYE
Yeah I was in the middle of a bunch of changes at the time, so I just played with the string while I was taking a break.
The vibes are almost gone now that I have removed the transfer drop, but...
Re: Tom Woods NP242 SYE
So I ran a string today, just messing around. To see if I could tell how far I am off.
Running the string from the middle of the diff yoke to the front.

Re: Tom Woods NP242 SYE

6.5" is all I have planned. I'll raise the rear up 1" after the SYE, then I'll see if it sits level or ass high. I'll have 4.5" front and 6.5" back at that point.

Ordered. I ordered the drive shaft with the long spline. :p

Many of you know that I have another stretched chain. Of course I won't know this for sure until I pull it a part but it fits all the past symptoms. It's the only problem I have ever had with this...
