Passed a big milestone this weekend: it runs!!! I only took video, not pics, and I can’t figure out how to post videos on mud.
This is so fricken cool!
Sweet. You gonna need to shorten the rear driveshaft for the new trans though? Sounds like that was less than ideal the first time around. Might be quicker to move the rear axle rearward than deal with the driveline shop again.
A friend "iggi" on Ih8mud had similar issues with the driveline shop in Calgary recently, though I think they ordered the wrong parts a couple times via dogsled from the other side of the world and charged more then they thought it would cost.
Don't they have to take the CV apart because it has rubber seals in it?? Whenever I get my driveshafts retubed they remove my u joints. I think if they don't the heat from the welding will kill the bearing seals. I thought mini truck CV joints only flexed like 20 degrees, that's why I've never used one. They also don't look too robust, I have like half a dozen old ones laying around. Tacomas and 3Rd Gen 4runners look like they have some fairly beefy CV joints. Fj60 has the beefiest of all though. Bummer about the transmission.
Is 4675 the same Jeep who left the starting line alongside 4602 Steel City Racing?
Great job on the EMC podium finish
I have to re-re-re-work the three inch exhaust in my 62 again
Nice update, looking forward to pics of the cross member!
