Yes I am.

 

LOL
Small world, eh?

 

I will guess you've got some caps & rods mixed up. Ask me how I know this? Because I did the some thing not too long ago. I would have sworn I had done a awesome job not getting the caps & rods mixed up but sure enough I did. As merc said make sure you've got the chamfered side going the correct direction and also look to make sure you've got the caps & rods with the correct one.

 

Sounds like a good idea. I never did check the rods with the caps. I just put the numbered caps on the right journal and figured the machine shop put them with the right rods.

 

Left it to the machine shop.... not good. One should always mark the cap and rod on the side with a corresponding number before taking it apart, this keeps them as a matched set. You match the numbers up to the same side and then install the pistons/rods/caps.

 

Ive been messing with it for a while and I think the the caps are mixed up. I used a micrometer and the journal was good so I looked at the rod and the cap hangs over the rod on the side the journal is on. So it's not a perfect circle. I wonder why no other rod would lock up when I torqued it then?

 

How long did you have the truck for?

 

Caps 6 and 8 were switched around. I did originally mark everything with a sharpie and the machinist punched it for me. He must have read it wrong, but anyways it spins great now.

 

I'm finishing up my list of parts to order, and I was wondering what double roller timing set to get. I found this mopar one, but I can't find the cloyes one everyone seems to have.

I have the Mopar one and am completely happy with it
