This is where I am going to track my Winter 06-07
Project. - OK so I didn't do so good keeping this up to date. I am
working on getting this updated.
I am swapping the Axles, Tranny, Hydraulic Clutch, and
Swinging Pedals. My goal is to get this done this spring.
Main reason is to get time to run it when the middle boy comes home on
leave before shipping to Iraq.

Specs:
-
Front Axle - Dana 30, 4.88s, Disc Brakes, OX Lockers
- going to do a tie rod flip as well.
-
Rear Axle - Dana 44, 4.88s, 11" Brakes, OX Lockers,
Warn Full Floater Kit.

Tranny - SM465 to a D18 with a Warn OD.
Hydrolic Clutch is a NOVAK setup that took some modifications.
That may be due to using an AA Bell Housing.

Next Update - Moved the engine forward 1" and built the cradle for the SM465 to mount to.
This will allow me to put skid plates on later. Got it all plumbed, OX lines laid out, Need to rework some fenders
to clear the headers and it 'should' go back together.
