I've always liked the look of those.

One day maybe I'll have one of my own. ha ha. We have 3 more coming in. 2 will be here in December, 1 more in January. Then it'll be time for another trip.

Ok, some updates, this time of year is busy, busy, busy

I got the following all done, oil pan installed, front driveshaft installed.

I just need to put the dash back together, and then take the thing down to a local transmission shop to have the Reverse looked at, ever since the valve body swap, my reverse isn't working. I don't want to pull it back apart. Once was good enough.

I also ordered an adjustable front panhard bar for it, since I've lifted it close to 4 inches, the axle is pulled more to the drivers-side, and it needs to go a bit to the right. I'll home brew one for the back once I get around to it.

The almost last piece to the puzzle arrived today.

Ok finally finishing the last details.

Redid some old wiring. Updating with a new fuse box and bus bar. Much cleaner now. Not quite done yet though.

Old set up.



New set up in progress

Bus bar





And future placement

Need to make some spacers or move the vacuum pump somewhere else.

ok So here is the finished product mounted and wiring cleaned up. I made it so everything can be removed without having to cut wires. Now I have two more spaces for lights or accessories.

I’m making a new power wire from the battery to the bus bar next. Just tested it all. And everything works.

Now I need to take it to a transmission shop and have the tranny looked at. Reverse doesn’t work after my full manual shift kit install. Not sure what I did wrong. But I’m tired of transmissions.
