    Pedel bike Cranks

    You can run 1/2/3 chainrings on the front crank with multiple spd rear cassettes... I don't think a new crank is the problem, unless it was SOMEHOW manufactured wrong.:eeek:

    Pedel bike Cranks

    Sheldon Brown's Website: Chain suck Chain suck occurs primarily when downshifting under load from the middle to the smallest chainring. The bottom run of the chain may not immediately disengage from the middle ring, and can get carried upward until it wedges betwixt the chainwheels and the...

    Pedel bike Cranks

    Maybe it needs a 9spd rear cassette? I think I still have a shimano one in my parts box...*checks box o' parts*... yup, I have a 9spd cassette. Is that what the shop sa:corn:id you need? :eeek: I wanna say I had this issue when I switched wheelsets....you would go to shift gears and the chain...

    Pedel bike Cranks

    That doesn't make sense to me. How many gears are on the rear cassette? My theory from what you've said: the chain is getting stuck because you have too few of gears on the rear cassette. Or the chain is too narrow for the setup.

    Pedel bike Cranks

    Is it the bottom bracket or crank arms you needs? Im assuming its the bearing portion that goes into the frame and not the crank arms themselves. First you gotta figure out what style you have, look on park tools website or Scott browns website for bottom bracket info. But I got a FSA (Full...

    detroit truetrac or lock right

    I like my true-trac so far, the trucks on 32" BFG's, i def agree that a large tire will wear out an LSD fast. But so far it's performed well, no noise or jerkyness on the road. :awesomework: For a daily driver i would recommend it.

    VW electrical problem

    I was planning on putting something a little more permanent in, it's just zip-tied along the original route right now. I think i put a 14ga wire in, if i remember what hole in the cutters i trimmed the edges with. :redneck: It started up and drove this morning. It still has a stumble, like a...

    VW electrical problem

    Well, i think the exciter wire was the issue or i guess the alternator needing a slightly better ground. I put a 16ga (or so...) wire from the alternator to the negative battery post and then started it up, with the battery fully charged overnight, checked the volts and it was reading 14.10v. So...

    VW electrical problem

    I think so... I'm far from an electrical expert, my dad was the one doing the testing, he did confirm there were no drains on the battery. I think he checked the grounds this morning. Not sure if he tested the ohms. How would one do that? he's not here to help, but i'm here and can test it...

    VW electrical problem

    Could it maybe be a loose ground wire causing this issue? A guy at work said they chased a similar problem and it was a loose ground wire. They replaced the starter/alternator/battery and nothing solved it but a loose ground wire. :eeek:

    VW electrical problem

    We only tested at idle, compared it to my dad's lexus which was showing 14.5v at the battery while idling. mine at idle was 12.5v at the battery. That was with the original alt. and the "new" alt. That's what my dad was wondering, if the "exciter" wires weren't sending a signal. :eeek:

    VW electrical problem

    We tested the resistance in the large wire from the alt. to battery and it was fine. that wouldn't change while running would it? A part of me is still suspicious of a bad alternator, just because I've had the napa tester thingy say it was fine and then go to another store and have them tell...

    VW electrical problem

    ya, we checked that, looks fine, we're testing to see if there is a draw with everything turned off, looks like there might be. the only thing i have installed that is aftermarket is a Zune connection to the back of the radio, which was done per the isntructions. I'm wondering if that's the...

    How should I finish this..

    Put a slight chamfer or notch/bend to the rec. tube at the ends with the hitch in the middle, like this. \_____I_I_____/ That way it kinda breaks up the boxy look... Edit: to finish it off, you could plate the top as a place to step/stand/jump and do air kicks from.:D

    CHOP SHOP: YA POO POO HEAD! I probably have more hours into drawing up, designing and figuring out that front mount than time actually building it! :haha: It's a disease...... :redneck: tlcruiser66: So far everything's been easy to work on, I know we had breifly talked about those wheel...
