Got hung up on the clutch fork not engaging the throwout bearing by 3/16 of an inch . I wasn't able to get any info as to correct or remedy the situation, nor get some of the repair shops to make a house call, So I switched to the G7123 COE and have made some progress on it though. Buuuuttttt, I...

6.1.20 Picture dump part 2 I am tired and wish there was a REASONABLE sandblaster near me...would have saved almost a week! Oh and I shot the Cummins motor mounts/hole saw brands review this morning also ...hopefully out by the end of the week!

6.1.20 Picture dump part 1

Well my Spring Break (working every other week) ended today (was supposed to go till June 15). Don't get me wrong, I am happy to go back to semi full time (still 32 hour weeks). I Got a ton of stuff done and actually almost reached most of the goals (only lacking the power steering and drilling...

Picture Dump 5.27.20 Rear Mount is sorted out after 3 redesign and second set of lowers done when it didint work out drilling the center of the stock M35 upper mounts. This is as far I go as it will need a shim to level with the transfercase...but I haven't sourced polyurethane isolators yet...

Thanks for the suggestion a sponsor would be REAL nice, but I can't in clear conscience support a manufacturer that has been proven to me to not be reliable. I did find there was a free extended warranty available for the this particular bandsaw as there were design problems but said extended...

Today's Dump with comments: Time to use the modded template again (now with new and improved horizontal veiw..next picture) Thinking a little art deco here, masononite board is the frame mount template. Well I killed another Milwaukee tool...their quality has gone downhill since being made...

Picture dump 5.16.20 Now onto the rear side mounts..yeah!

Thanks Guys! Yep pretty old school here! LOL! So Thursday I put the intercooler and radiator back in to check clearances one last time before cutting the crossmember, just to be quadruple sure. As expected there is more room than I needed (well under an 1 1/2 more than before I decided to also...

You want to know what true beauty looks like? I'll show you! wait for it wait just a little more BOOM!!!!! There is at the most a 32nd of daylight at the front of the yoke for the transfer case! What a bear to clean sand and prime and either they did radiator repair with...

5.12.20 Picture dumpmp:

Thanks! Actually I consider it a way of 1) Helping others learn from my mistakes and help beginners to plan and to give them insight into how hard or easy a project is. How I go about project planning (or winging it when it DOESN'T go as planned! LOL!) Also for the seasoned professionals to...

Can't believe this! Goes to show you can't trust every tool...sometimes the simplest tools are the best! I was leveling parallel with the Harbor Fright digital gauge and once they where at the right numbers it looked worst than I started! Eyeballed it and lowered engine trans and found it was...

Thanks Plowboy..I needed that..I knew there were a bunch of songs with 4 chords...just didn't know they were the SAME chords LOL! Thanks for the feedback and advice M37M35! My brain is getting fried right now, another 12 hours outside today AGAIN! LOL! I am almost done fighting the...

PS Trans and tcase out 3/4 inch (trans high) at this point

Been fighting for 2 plus days now the angles and clearance...either notch the crossmember for front output clearance or raise transfer case and rework both front frame mounts to lower engine trans. Engine/trans and tcase are centered in the frame, tcase front input and transmission output...

According to the Spicer manual, the short jackshafts should never exceed .5 degrees in the horizontal plane, and should be in perfect alignment when viewed from the top. I do feel I have something wrong with my mounting. As the front output has an 1/8 clearance under the crossmember (I know...

Yes so true on critism and Thanks for the kind words! Don't worry I am so fed up with this program I will shout it from the rooftops! They have declawed all the video downloaders I used to use...I can no longer use a download helper to get most videos anymore....but if you put the video in...
