I had a wonderful time with everyone today. Although some of the kids were brutal my bobber made it through without anything broken. 2 hour trip there, 2 hour trip home.
I'll post pictures after I get some sleep. Got up at 0300 this morning to be at the credit union for 0630. Left at 1500...
So when are we allowed to leave once we park? Do we have to stay for the entire show? If so, when would that be? If something came up are we allowed to get out sooner? :)
Here's a shorter video with the GoPro mounted outside the passenger side windshield. Again, went to my favorite Saturday lunch destination (Burgersmith).

Here is a long winded video from inside the cab of my bobbed deuce on a lazy Saturday drive for lunch. Sorry it's so long, but I'm having a little fun with my new GoPro Hero 5.

Couldn't you just buy a pair of lockout hubs and free up the binding of the detroit lockers from the rear? Not sure where you would put both of them. One on alternating sides of each rear axle (middle axle driver side, rear axle pass side)? Or for gas mileage both on the middle axle? :D
I replaced my starter yesterday on my 6BT engine swap after 3 years and 3000 miles of use. Apparently driving through 4-5 ft of water during the August 2016 Great Louisiana Flood got water where it shouldn't have been. No clue why it took 7 months to create sludge and make it's way to the...

Is it the inside or the outside of the tire that's cupping? Have you checked your toe (in or out)? All the same tire pressures? Truck doesn't pull to the right?
I've done more to my bobber than just a re-power. :driver: People can pick and choose any one of the many modifications if they need more information.
Let us know if you need more help.
Just for reference the going rate on an ARB locker for a Rockwell axle is about $1050 MSRP. I paid $510 for my Ouverson Rockwell locker. So 2 for the price of one. But then you have to add Ouverson lockout hubs at $635 a pair for at least the front axle. Decisions, decisions...
Glad you pulled over, and you were lucky to make it back home. Get yourself a 24v to 12v converter (click here) and keep your phone charged in your truck. It may just save your life one day.
