In the morning, we retrieved the unibodies and screws so the shop could start putting them together.
Almost shiny naked aluminum. People who paint aluminum, WTH man!

Then this afternoon, the shop surprised us by almost finishing the job! I hope this truck will be completed by Saturday.
The case is about to be ready. I think by tomorrow afternoon, he will ask us to collect.

@DrRock First, I apologize for not responding to your text because this project was just started.

Those styles evolved over time as local shops refined them for Saudis' needs, "exploring or hunting." It used to be much simpler, but it started with the boxes you want to make.

I think I need to write a thread about its history

Very cool, thanks for the information, looking forward to the thread! No worries on the delay, I know you’re busy which is great.

I brought the Multi D so we can try to do a final wash "without using a steel-brush! I hate them on aluminum."
All oil plugs will be replaced with new ones. Must be all silver.

But before we drive it out, beautiful-looking shafts are going to be in. Jacob is serious about this truck being fully serviced. We can rebuild, but pricing here is good to get OEM new units.

Old stuff to be remembered. I know the master cylinder looked fine; maybe the previous owner replaced it a couple of years ago. However, over here, it is extremely rare to see someone including a note with all the fixes that occurred during the truck's life.

Last week, got a new Aisin fan clutch, but the bolts did not fit! Most likely the unit got a wrong packaging, or my part guy got scammed with not original Aisin.
To save time and provide higher quality, I opted for an OEM unit. "You scored an OEM one, Jacob! haha"
