Default Dyno'd the Hoe, Carnage pics....

Well.....I tore some more up today. It seems a stock driveshaft does not like 140+mph @ 6400+rpm. After dinner I will post pics plus a little video as I was taping in the passenger seat as it let go. I am making a few calls tomorrow on a used FLT trans and I need a new (stronger) driveshaft. Also the carbon filter box took some flak hence the mess. Let the fun begin....

Subscribe now, pics coming soon

I wondered why you asked about that old converter I had for sale.

This will be a long thread, people love carnage.

Good luck finding someone that will build a one piece long driveshaft for that.

Subscibing and dreading what is to come...
I'm crossing my fingers that your wrong and it's just the dyno that broke and someone threw a bunch of spare parts under your truck to fool you...

Sorry man. I have tested my new Dynotech aluminum shaft to 7000rpm on the dyno with 2 pulls and performed flawless. I highly recommend. I think mine is 62.5" eye to eye.

The bad part is, the driveshaft is the only stock part left on the whole damn driveline.
