I have the bottom side of the car ripped apart. The center bearing in the driveshaft is dead. The cats were also completely plugged. So those got knocked out. Just waiting on some new transmission mounts to show up, then I'll take it for a spin.

Your wish is my command. But I probably won't start installing it until this winter. On a side note. All the transmission linkage and transfercase linkage is adjusted. Damn it works nice finally. Can anyone tell me why it would be really hard to shift an NP241 from 4 high to Neutral and 4...

I just found a 6.5TD with serpentine, turbo and all the manifolds I need to upgrade this a little more. Updates coming Monday!

I like to text them back and forth for hours. Upping my price with each consecutive stupid thing they do. It never goes anywhere, but wasting their time. Then I send them pictures of annoying things I find on google for hours after they stop texting me. I'm evil and I know it.

Or watch it on TV. LOL. No crowds, comfort of my couch. No traffic. It'll be nice for a few days to have half of Utah move to Idaho.

Ok getting closer. I have all the shifter parts installed. I need to adjust the transfercase cable a bit more. But everything is working pretty good. This is the transfercase bracket. It's working pretty good. Just needs some fine adjustments. This is the center console for now. I'm...

The transmission tunnel sits pretty high in this thing. It helps it have a pretty flat belly. Nothing sits below the frame other than suspension stuff. The transmission shifter is a little tall, but oh well, lol. I'll live with it as long as I can grab all the gears.

Shifters are now mocked up. I still need to rivet the plate that holds them to the body and seal it up. Then build a new center console around them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My shifting parts have shown up. They are pretty awesome. Transfercase shifter Transmission B&M shifter Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's the best freaking idea yet. damn, maybe I should part it out!

Don't worry, they still are $1200 at the stealership. There is a guy in Japan that makes some high performance units. They cost $189 for all 12 cylinders. Unfortunately I didn't know about that until mine had arrived. I guess if i keep it long enough to worry about that again, I'll buy his...

No, they are copper. But I still don't understand why they cost $300 for a set. Not even Mercedes or Range Rover parts are that dear.

I got it running yesterday with two new fuel pumps. Runs great. No weird noises. Unfortunately the center bearing on the driveshaft is toast. So I'll order a new one. $20. And it'll be all good to go. It's pretty damn fast. I like it a lot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are there any mineral rights in the area? Or mines? If so they cannot shut down the road as far as I know.

You know, that's a good idea, especially since hummers used the 6.2 diesel as well. ha ha

Next up? Dana 60's? Front and rear? Maybe, we shall see, I miss having a parking brake. Maybe some portal axles. LOL:greg:

Ok, I finally gave in and ordered a transfercase shifter kit and a transmission shifter kit. This stock stuff, just isn't working. Its always popping out of gear. I don't have the time to screw around with it anymore. I figured $400 worth of parts is better than spending hours trying to...

I'm good at replacing them with better units though.

Here are a couple pictures of the beast. I figured out yesterday I have a dead fuel pump. This car has two. So it's hard to figure out why the engine doesn't run very good sometimes. Lol. Have the engine is getting gas and the other half isn't. I want to lower it about an inch to an inch and a...

Well I got it back together and running for the first time. But it sounds like I have a bad injector. So I guess I'll try running some cleaner through the tank. If that doesn't fix it, I'll have to get them rebuilt. I also drove it around a little. It's very slow. So I also think the cats...
