Ok i just wondered about running the 6 puck on the street. Yet i think i'm going for the rigid hub. Do you know how much weight you removed? Thanks for the help.

solid hub clutches are pretty noise...and they can be damn grabby...I have not driven a solid hub VW...but I have a solid hub on my cummins and it's pretty burly..
I just cut the ring off until it was flush with the dowel pin surface...pretty much took off as much as you can.....I never weighted it tho..sorry I wish I had...
Ok well let me know how you like your setup works cause i'm probably gonna go the way you did.
On a side note i got a 2001 dodge 5spd thats gonna get a clutch. It's gonna be a farm truck what clutch would you recomend?

I will let you know forsure...
I like haisley Machine clutches and I also like southbend clutches either one of those would be a great choice..I run a double disk haisley street drag in my cummins...I like double disk clutches...they make lots of single disk that hold lots of power...but I really like the DD clutches my self
but what clutch you you want is based off your HP goals and truck usage...if it's a stock farm truck you could get a single probably....but if you tow lots and want to add more HP now or later you ought to look at a DD.....I would probably get a DD clutch regardless...
K sounds good the truck has a fuel box and other minor stuff. Acctually haisley is close to the truck in ind.
got my new gauges installed too!!!
Where can I get a guage pod like that?
well mt gas relay base was not the same and not compatible at all
I found a plug and play pigtail/harness but I have had to order it so I made my own plug to get me by till it gets here....
glow plug relay base..
it's almost ready to start!!
I had a BRUTAL migraine today so I pretty much did not get anything done..just some odds and ends.
pic update tomorrow.....
well I did not make my goal I had to start it this week....I probably could have but I worked some other stuff on the car and not just the "get it started stuff"
I did most the glow plug wiring....I used Vince W's write up to get the idea on it but I went with a different style fuse block.
I have all the wiring hooked up to a VW style glow plug relay..then it's ran through the ford style relay and then to the fuse block, then to the glow plugs....
I have the wiring done except
glow plug light
temp sensor
fuel solenoid
problem is the glow plugs did not kick on when I tested them last night.
do I need to have the
glow plug light
temp sensor
fuel solenoid
wires hooked up to the glow plug relay in order for it to kick the glow plugs on???
here is my glow plug wiring
I thought if the wires I have unhooked are left unhooked the glow plugs would still come on....but they would default time for 30 seconds or something???
some pics of my water and oil supply lines..
turbo coolant return line hooked into the old oil cooler line...
turbo coolant supply line..
this is my "connectzilla" bonus points if you can tell what I made my oil manifold from :lol:
I have a few things hooked or will be hooked up there that why I have the manifold..OEM oil temp sender, OEM oil pressure sender, turbo supply..then I will have one extra spot for a incab oil pressure gauge or just a pressure checker spot for my shop gauge. (yeah I know I dont have the oil cooler hooked up in this pics....I still debating on if I should use the non thermostatic sandwich I have or ..just buying a new thermo version)
I cut some of the lip off the front bumper so I could mount my intercooler on the bumper..
this idea is Zukgod1 idea...another big thanks to him for all his help and advice with this build...
this is a dodge cummins fuel canister/water separator
water drain
Oooo Ooooo Pick Me Pick Me!!!!
I know what the "connectzilla" it is..
What do I get if I'm correct?
how it sits now....
turbo diesel badge replaces the "jetta GLI" badge :twisted:
thanks for the badge Zukgod1
I think I may need one of those Uinta Diesel Performace stickers..
