And pulled cover with tape measure nearby. 8.25 ring gear. I have 3.55 sitting on floor.
Stupid thing is i wanted a diff,and stuck the first one in, but wanted to pull the truck one. All the grief i suffered was self inflicted.
 
Im in the same boat! I tried it and tried it and tried it 20 more times. Each time it was a different number. Finally I just at it until I got a consistent number for that spot.
It didnt like angle 1 as i set the trans level. Had 2/3 green then when i lowered it with the wheels on it accepted it.
Was just a pain going back and forth to find the happy spot.
If the app suggested the last measurement it would save a lot of bs. Then you could dial it in to top or bottom of the parameter.
 
Hello All. Found the Demon is leaking oil something terrible. Ugh. My thoughts are the timing cover or oil pan. Going to wipe it down, dump in some dye and run it for a bit and observe with a black light. I have a timing cover gasket set coming in tomorrow just in case. This sucks.

Well that didn't work. I was supposed to have a virtual exam with my Dr. over my phone but the program works with Chrome but not Firefox. It won't access my camera and microphone. (and I'm not changing browsers.) We'll do it on the computer tomorrow.
 
Looks like my radiator flaps work, definitely some airflow where there wasn’t before. It’s kinda hard to see (was filming and driving) but look between the cap and air cleaner. We’ll see if the make any difference when I get the hood installed.
