Need to borrow a GoPro or ?
I was recently told that my 9" pinion was moving a lot, thanks Rox, so I'd like to try and film the movement so I can make a plan to calm it down. I suppose I could just use any video camera as long as the lender is willing to hang off & under my rig as I drive around, just kidding!
I'm fairly certain my solution will be an anti-wrap setup of some kind, likely home built, but I'd like to see what's happening. I guess this is one negative to diesel torque with a standard transmission.

Re: Need to borrow a GoPro or ?
My pinion was moving so much it about jumped into the back seat after I put my 60 in. Might have something to do with removing 75% of the springs for more travel. . I bought some 4 link tabs created my own shackle point added some square tube and whaalaa, pinion playing nice. I didn't think of the camera trick. I held onto the steering wheel while hanging out the door like a fool dumping the clutch.

Thanks Landshark.
kchaser, if you get the chance will you snap me a pic of your setup, or have you already posted up about it?

Re: Need to borrow a GoPro or ?
I'm on the road for a couple weeks and could only find this one crappy pic. The upper shackle is mounted on a 4"x2" tube with the shackles positioned up. Was able to make it on the exact plane and length of the driveshaft. Can get more pics if I get home someday.

Re: Need to borrow a GoPro or ?
I have the wrap trap and it doesn't hinder any travel at all. It's a option and it works great
