looks like you've done more in one year than brad...a.k.a. kargomaster has done in say what, the last 5 years.

Appreciate that Boomie...

Is that the illusive texas-bolt-pattern 1980 IH D300???? That might be one of the most $$$$ parts on there...

Nice looking jeep... You may find that the 36's and 14 bolt will drag a bit, but it's a 14 bolt, you could HANG the thing by the rear dif and it wouldn't care...

Pat's ol' gal appreciates the love, I'm sure.

i do plan on shaving that 14 bolt but i won't be doing that myself and its not in the budget anytime soon. oh and pats ol "gal" is going through some life changes and is becoming a "man" :)

well i started installing a clocking ring on the tcase. i'm building my own crossmember/skid plate. got everything installed today and measured for front driveshaft.

new crossmember uses stock bolts in frame and i put a couple bolts through the frame on each side. i welded coupler nuts so when i get some plate for skid plate i can unbolt it to access the tcase oil pan.
