replacing the transfer-case in an A1

[austinaubinoe]

Figured it out!

-good transfer case in bed
-scrapped alot of paint off of it today, not as rusty as it looks. Very solid except for one spot in the cab corner
-new exhaust!!
-Batteries dated 2004. Wonder if they can be rejuvenated. Stole the platinum's from my wagoneer and dads 51 chev pickup...
-Is that a tool shelf above the spare? Where can I get the factory tool kits from?
-Factory aux heater! Just needs new ducting
-dash plaque says A2 WO/W, but seems newer then the other ones. plus no manufacturer stamp.
-duel drivers side seats= Luxury ride for the passenger!
-exhaust seems to be extended, but very quality weld job.

Have a gallon of fresh rustoleum rusty primer, gonna wire brush and scrape the **** out of it, then gonna wipe it down with Acetone. Then roll on primer to make sure as much bare metal as possible is covered before winter. Also gonna grease all zirks. and drain the fuel filters.

Eventual goal is to make it look like a WWII Deuce. or atleast that period OD paint.

the taller stack is a nice touch, i just extended mine by about a foot and a half and in cab noise went down considerably.
