For all you that care, I just wanted to give an update on the transplant project. I took it for it's first drive today around the block. Everything sounded good from what I can tell so far. I still have to hook up the shocks and change out the steering shaft and I have to bring in the front drive shaft to have it lengthened (I am in e-drive right now). I also need to put in a 1" block in the rear to level it out and all should be good. I will be ready for Ouray!!!
What I have done so far is swap the engine, tranny, t-case, both axles and various other parts to make all this work. Once I am complete with the whole thing I will write a nice long report in detail of what I had to do to make this work, it wasn't easy. I have been working on it everyday for a month straight, and I am lucky that I am still married http://www.cs.colostate.edu/~zeimet/ubb/biggrin.gif Later and thanks to all that have help me with my "project"
