Zora,
Do you know exactly how he broke it? Who made his gears? Did he break them in or not?

Be careful at the track.....here is a 94 with Dana 36 3:54 gears. After a few runs it Broke! :eek: :(
Hmmm, I thought you needed a Dana 44 to put those gears in.

I'm guessing he was using slicks for that.
Dana36's are prone to break if u use slicks and have more than the stock HP of the car.

Is it just me or does that blue car have different tail light lenses? For some reason they do not appear nearly as recessed as normal. :confused:

70 mph = 2500 rpm
about 20 runs on drag radials.....no problems yet .
About the tail lights on the blue car...they are available at Mid-America

Re: 3.54's are in! (jimtreber)
I also have the 3.54's from Zip and I love them. The only thing I don't like is how fast the car shifts now during normal driving. Jerk the stick down to low before you take off and the tires will give up the fight as you roll into it hard. And that the 1-2 shift under W.O.T. puts the car alittle sideways. If you have a bad driving record or high insurance, this is definately not the mod for you. Forget I said that, you only live once!!!!! :cheers:
