    SOCOM PINZ MOD info

    Well Bill, it's a double standard. If those trucks were in another country, and at least 25 years old, they would be legal to bring into the US, and registerable ( at present) in most states. But they're here and not registerable for the road.... if they came up for auction, I'd love to have...

    SOCOM PINZ MOD info

    Well Bill, Going strictly by memory, the 710/12 cardon shaft is 16" long (+/-). the cardon shaft in the 716/18 with a manual trans is 4+" longer, and with the ZF auto box is still almost 2" longer than the 710/12 cardon shaft. Knowing that the Pinz's manual trans have a flat tail plate, I would...

    SOCOM PINZ MOD info

    Bill, You're catching on.:grin: The 716 has a 94" WB. The 718 is 4" shorter ( +/-), and it is the difference of the length of the spacer between the diff and transfer case ( measure that and tell me). The central tube is longer on the 716/18. When I refer to 710/12 and 716/18, I am "comparing "...

    SOCOM PINZ MOD info

    Bill, I can give you some insight into some of the "oddites" of the Pinz drivetrain, and the differences between the 710/12 and the 716/18. If you haven't found out by now, the axle outputs on the diffs are offset. The right side is about 2" in front of the left. The 716/18 diff and front drive...

    SOCOM PINZ MOD info

    Popacom, I've been away from the SS forum for a while, and just came across this thread. It is indeed a 716 or 18 backbone. I've had a 710 and 712, and have had a 716 for 7 plus years. Needless to say, the inboard disc brakes were a mod, and the original swing axle diffs were locked into place...
