Thank you all. Been fighting with this car all season and it is all coming together. Still have loud audible clicks in the suspension. Inspected the differential and axles, they are 100% in operating order. The suspension wires were not damaged as some have suggested that was it. Cleaned all the brakes, the hubs and did find rocks. Cleaned those out. Still get it. Only thing I can think of is that the cradle and diff bushings might be worn out. I admit I beat the hell out of this thing. I'm going the lockout kit route. I will post a video of the 1st place finish tonight, I promise. I'll post it in general. Then I get to deal with Tazer fun...

Inspected them when I got under the car today, no issues that I would be worried about, bedding looks normal. No debris or rocks stuck in them.

Maybe you just never saw it changing b4, I didn't notice it for a while too.
I don't think so. Noticed it right away this year and I made a lot of passes last year and had looked at my dash many times. Being in the track mode with the trans, when I get done with a run I hit default so it isn't down shifting so hard as I'm slowing down and I was doing that last year also. I would have seen the yellow exclamation point on the screen which was the first thing I noticed this year

I've seen the yellow exclamation but car still ran in custom mode and confirmed in the data log. Wonder if it's a display lag or something.

bad news still makes the click, trying to source a set of gently used hellcat shocks. We scanned the ADCM module with his witech and nothing was throwing a code. Also need to get isolator cups as mine are pretty worn. Going to make some test hits this weekend at Capitol. We also learned I may have a single digit lineal hellcat

tazer wont remap buttons cause my car was made in 2014, officially they only support cars 2015.5+

@fumanchu182 I think we need to stop talking to each other about ideas to go faster 😂 the cars can’t handle our ideas
Not sure if you saw but gforce axles are going up on price. If you want a new set beefcake is still honoring the old price this weekend and have 5 percent off for Halloween. I just ordered the outlaws. The renegades will be fine though.

I have a set of Redeye axles with tone rings on them, ready to install, perfect for beating on. I removed them when installing the the new Outlaw axles and new Diff, and new trans too lol. Only known issue was the driver side one had a faint click to it when cornering on the way home from a 5 pass track night that went away after 30-40 miles of road use and 1/4 runs the weeks after until breaking the Tranzilla. $400 for the pair with tone rings on them. Can meet you on 81 with them near the Mason Dixon if you want. Here they are on my cluttered work bench, picture just taken now. They out lasted the 4340 Tranzilla input shaft gear next to them lol!!

that is correct, had the Dr. Sit in the rear as we tested the diff, he can hear it as we articulated but it occurs over bumps. Showed him the gopro video and he for sure thinks shocks. Even on the highway the car feels floaty…

How soon you need/want them? I think I can do a road trip tomorrow morning early, I can get out on the road by 7 and be at/around the Pa/Maryland border on 81 in about 2 hours. Or I can ship them Monday for about $75 extra, we’re going to spend that in gas, it’s more about time then money. If you want them today and want to do the whole drive to Wilkes Barre I’ll be home all day today, having a Halloween party tonight so I can’t get away today. I’m only 10 minutes and 1 stop sign off 81N (6 traffic circles lol, and one LARGE State Police barracks lol off 81)
Let me know.

You have a 2.4 blower? Want a dyno proven 50 Hp bolt on? I’m going to be posting this FAS Billet Blower inlet plate for sale. You can’t buy one to self install any longer, this one has had its bores corrected already by me and is ready to bolt on. They sell for $1000 plus installation fees and shipping. Their not hard to do with the right instructions and technique. I’m going to be posting it for $950, any interest let me know you can have first dibs on it. On the dyno chart the upper 2 pulls are with the plate and others before the plate, this on 93 with a 2.85 Litens pulley M6 4th gear pulls. Makes 17.75-18 psi of boost with a 2.85 pulley in good air on a good blower through stock heads and exhaust manifolds.
