I have not touched Uglina since September. My back is healing but we're in the final drive to get my product out the door. Summer is coming and we're going to get this baby back on the road before then! So even though I'm crazy busy, I'm going to get 'er done!

Here is the updated list of things todo in the rough order I will attack (changes since the last time I posted the Todo List in blue):

Completed:
  1. Tear down front hubs/knuckles (done)
  2. Remove front 3rd member (done)
  3. Finish removing oil pan gasket (done!!!!)
  4. Remove old gasket material from diff covers (done)
  5. Remove front steering components (tie rod, relay rod, etc...) (done)
  6. Remove LF Fender (to access PS box) (done)
  7. Remove old coolant hoses (done. Thanks Bull).
  8. Clean, de-rust, and paint: 3rd members, steering components, knuckles... (Done (powder coated))
  9. Replace PS box (leaking badly). Box removed then put back on because I actually don't think it's the PS box that's leaking.
  10. Removed PS pump; sent it to Florida for rebuild; got it back and it looks great.
  11. Rebuild hubs and knuckles. Done!
  12. Install 3.73 3rds with new gaskets & nuts. Done!
  13. Replace Tie rod and drag link ends. (Done!)
  14. Rebuild center arm (Done!)
  15. Replace stabilizer (got a new one from Bull) (Done!)
  16. Replace Tie Rod and Relay Rod (both bent). (Done!)
  17. Install new oil pan. (Done!)
  18. Fix battery, frame, body ground wires. (Done!)
  19. Install new battery tray (requires drilling out a broken stud) (Done!)
  20. Install new hoses. (Done!)
  21. Install my Tuffy box. (Done!)
  22. Fix rear heater fan. (Done!)


To Be Completed:
  1. Drop tcase, fix Tranny/Tcase seal, rebuild as needed
  2. Rebuild parking brake
  3. Install new clutch fork boot
  4. Install 2.5" Lift Kit. OME Springs, Shocks, Shackles, etc…
  5. Fix speedo cable/seal
  6. Replace PS hoses (old ones off, sourcing new ones (Shane!)
  7. Install rebuilt PS pump, belt, etc...
  8. New fill/drain plugs
  9. Install new Fan & AC Belts
  10. Re-attach smog gear temporarily tied away to give access to PS system.
  11. Re-install fender and grill.
  12. Fix windshield washer pump/hose
  13. Install new calipers.
  14. Clean frame rails (full of mud)
  15. Put my new OEM steel (freshly poweder coated!) wheels on
  16. Drive away

Stuff I've decided to defer simply because I have way too much to do and they were just "nice to haves while I'm in there":
  • Replace rear drum pads
  • Replace front disc pads
  • Replace clutch
  • Replace rear main seal
  • De-smog
