Re: Grumpa’s 72 GMC Denali

Well, it's hard to believe that nearly three months have passed since my last post, but there has not been a lot of progress on the build since that point. Spring came early to Alaska and with our summers being so short the last place I want to be is inside, so this project is pretty well on hold until after Moose hunting season wraps up (September).

I did manage to sort out the issue with the transfer case to transmission with a few phone calls and emails to Advance Adapters. Based on their advice I had to short both the transmission output and the T-Case input by about 3/16" each, and now the interference issue is gone. There is still plenty of spline engagement so no worries there but I will say I was nervous when I started cutting!

My goal for the project this summer is to have the frame painting complete before it gets cold again so it will likely be a while before I add more to the thread!
