I will be installing a R2.8 mated to a H55F and split transfer case. I got the adapters from Overland Cruisers in Montana along with the motor mounts and the crossmember for the transmission. The adapters consist of a machined aluminum plate...

Don't worry about getting laughed at, dude!! Enjoy yourself. This is your rig and nobody else's!

What sized exhaust do you want to run? I used 2.5". I ordered the walker unit that is typically recommended but if I recall correctly, it was too small in diameter. Since you're going to fully redo your exhaust, some fabrication is going to be...

A good exhaust shop should be able to build you a complete, properly fitted system for a few bucks. That's the path I would take

@Pierps I appreciate the links. I've studied the hydraulics and I know with a small bore slave and a larger bare master you can get a bit more travel. That's not my problem as I can shift just fine. Since I'm analytic guy, I want to be able...

The old rear sill repair. Overall happy with the real steel panels. They needed quite a bit of modification to fit but good enough for this cruiser.

I would definitely take the cap off for this. I did a pretty poor job on my headliner, and I had it off on sawhorses. The only challenge might be getting everything to line back up when you go to reinstall it. not a huge deal, but you'll...

My understanding is that the manufacturer of those parts now has a physical presence in the US and is selling them via this company. Search for Topnault on the forum and you'll see that they're pretty active and responsive to feedback. I have no...

So if I'm interpreting this correctly, I should absolutely use cash on hand to buy a bumper for my barely street legal recreational offroad toy from 4Plus. I accept your guidance. ;)
