Over the last couple of days I’ve been trying to get as much done as I can before my son arrives. As you can see, I’ve got the engine, transmission and transfer case installed. I’ve also updated all the rear brake lines and installed the new rear springs.
Unfortunately, I dropped the engine down enough within the chassis (when I changed the engine mounts) that the transfer case output yoke is too level, resulting in sharp driveline drop. So, I’m having to drop the tranny and TC. I might have to twist the rear axle as well, but will waiting until I set the body on the frame to see how the rear pinion angle changes.
So, more work ahead . . . This afternoon Colter and I will be heading to Gig Harbor to pick up Track Avenger 470cfm rebuilt carb I found on Craigslist. It will replace the old Carter 500 cfm that needed fixing.
