I got the carb/fuel issue worked out. The supply tube inside of the tank is broke (due to rust i'm guessing). I put a 5 gallom gas can in the passenger seat with the supply & return hoses in it and it will run great.

I finally have it at the house. I am going try and begin tearing down the front axle tommorrow afternoon, and also get the diff out of the rear. I could really use some help if anyone is willing. Free Beer!!!!, shop is heated!!!!, I'll even throw some sausage on the grill!!!!

Good to hear! If you were closer then I would head on over.

This is going to be a sweet ass rig!

I think you need some chrome nuts off the back to match the bull on the front!
 
Wish i didn't have drill or I would help ya out.

Bomar!!! Good to hear from ya!!
Thanks for the compliment...I hope so.
I don't believe Stacy will go for that....she wanted to remove da bull!!
 
Jeff, thanks for the offer....I had already heard that you had drill...that's why I didn't call.
Lenny, we just removed the diffs today.

I am shipping them to Kurt so he can set up ARB's. Kurt is then sending them to Daryl so he can finish setting up the axle. I had drums...going to disk and since I am going to have everything apart putting in longfields, ARP studs,....
I have a metal tech cage ordered and I believe I have everything to do the power steering. I plan on beginning the power steering this week.

Many, Many thanks to WCT49, for all the HELP!!!!!
 
jrob,

Do you still need the PS drag link and shackles?

I also have some soft half doors with rear view mirrors.

Let me know.
 
Damn....jump in deep with both feet....good job:bounce:
 
Jrob congrats on the progress......:clap::clap:

Gotta love a full floater;)
 
Josh, ...well....since I/we were going to have the axle tore down....figured I might as well do it right.

Cluthee, FO SHO. The rear was a little easier than the front.
 
Dam you guys made a lot of progress! Chris pulls apart his broken birf at the Crawl for the first time and now he is the front end man!

If you guys need to grind the knuckle to fit the longfields, greg has my supa dupa grinder that will make short work of the knuckle . He is using it now for his longs to fit in his knuckles. Jrob you are welcome to use it when Greg is done.

Sorry, I wish i could lend a hand its just tough with our busy season right now.
 
Need some help. How do I ship the diff's...they will not fit in a 5 gallon bucket, they are to tall.
