Re: 71 4X4 Frame off Restoration

1 baby step forward installing the ID tag back on the door jamb and a huge step backward had to mover the engine, transmission and T-case forward 1" so the right side coil pack would clear the fire wall. This caused conflict with exhaust on the right side the transmission mount and the rear driveshaft support. the good thing is the front drive shaft slip yoke still has plenty of movement. I will have to build another trans mount adapter because I don't want to move the hole mount and drill more holes in the frame. Radiator hoses can be cut down. The right side header is now conflicting with the shackle and bolt so I will have some mods to the header as well.
