Looking great Chris. Congrats on getting her rolling! That parking brake cable support looks easy enough to make yourself if you don't come across one.

Hey guys - - I am curious if anyone has any advice on what to complete BEFORE putting the tub back on the body. My body guy texted and he is in the final stages - exciting and scary!

So far, here is what I have done:

* Run all brake and fuel lines
* Installed leaf springs, axles and shocks
* Installed engine and trans crossmembers
* Front and Rear brakes
* Wheels and tires
* Parking Brake installed

Still left to do (at least in my mind):

* Fuel tank, sending unit and rubber fuel lines
* Transfer Case and Trans installed
* Drive shafts installed

Then put the tub on


Not sure if there is anything else - tail light wires, etc - but all that seems like it would be easy post tub install. Appreciate any suggestions from guys that have been there, done that.

Thanks!

Thanks Banks - feels like I am picking up steam now!

And had an interesting find last week. I was looking at torque converters and discovered a guy here in Cornelius who builds them for racers all over the world. One man shop, super knowledgeable and professional. He is building mine for me and I should have it next week.

The beauty of a local guy is service after the sale - he said if I was in any way unhappy with its stall limit (after I get everything back together), he'd adjust it for me for free. Hard to beat.
