Like you said in the vid a lot of us weren't aware of this problem. Good job.

Have you ever considered a career with the Emergency Broadcast System?

Todd, they need to give you a show on Speed Channel. You might be more interesting than that Stacy David weirdo.

No he would not! I live in the Mission District where all the hipsters and the Mexicans live.

All jokes aside for once, I'm pretty impressed with your pursuit of absolute perfection with your car, Todd. Keep fighting the good fight.

When Todd's asleep and no one else is in this thread, do my lame comments really count as a thread hijack?

Ok, I'll be serious.

Always interesting, always impressive Todd.

Myself, Todd and Ron Deraad have been exchanging emails back and forth on this problem. All three of us have the same knock back problem. Me and Ron have 9 inches (must be genetics) and Todd has the 12. All have the big ford bearings.

I will be pulling mine apart this weekend.

After a pow wow with Matt over at Moser Engineering, I'm pointing my finger at Wilwood. As he stated, they haven't reinvented the wheel here. The big ford end and the bearing are ford parts. I think the retaining plate is the issue. He thought I should shim it on the outside so it would be the way it was intended and would maintain all my axle mesh. Payton, since your problem started after installing the Wilwood kit it just reinforces what moser said. Measure your end play this weekend and hopefully we will need the same shims. We'll get some made. He did say he would call his Wilwood rep and make it known. I'm calling them later if I have time.

being so thin. I am really leaning towards making a new one that is thicker and machine a little preload into it.

I really do not want to be in my office today so I may get out of here and go mess with it.
