Pretty sure I saw one one fb near me. I'll see if I can find it again
What do you need?
Right side upper portion of quarter panel, I need to weld in a new sill below the rear window. Right front fender apron if available too.

Thanks for looking. I think I'm going to order the aisin tube.
I have a parts 97. It is water tight now, I am not sure I want to open it up till I have a chance to strip it all out.
Definitely understand, my rig goes to the body shop at beginning of November after Fall Crawl, so I have some time to get what I need.

Going to pull the engine out Friday after 4pm if anyone wants to come by and hang for a little bit. Would be helpful to have someone to help turn the crank while I crawl under the truck undoing the flex plate from the Torque converter. Hoping it separates without issue as there's no rust under there.
I can swing by a little while around that time to lend a hand. Plus I have gloves for you haha
Good luck boys!

Will post some more pics soon or if Alan does you'll see them but motor is out!! This pic is the motor fully free just not lifted out. Not too much trouble, the torque converter did try and hold onto the motor but with some pry bars was able to keep it w the tranny. Some weirdness with the trans cooler lines but we took them out altogether and it worked out. It the future we know to leave them in and disconnect the o2 wire that wraps around them.

Heading out to camp for the weekend but sounds like an awesome upgrade! Appreciate the invite
Glenn is coming by Saturday morning too
On a different note, my transmission temperature has increase around 15 degrees give or take 5 degrees at 70mph. I'm running around 210*F recently. On my trip to Hatteras at 70mph I was just below 200*F. On my trip to big levels when offroad, no temperature issues but this was the first time on highway I noticed it above 200*F. It seems it's getting to 200*F faster at highway speeds in the last couple weeks. I ordered transmission fluid last night. When I installed the Wholesale Automatic transmission nomad valve body, I changed the fluid at that time, 2 years ago. I am running through the cooler on the radiator and then to my PDI front mount cooler. I installed the blue hub radiator fan before my Hatteras trip. Reading I've done is pointing to my torque converter. Thoughts?
