Well here is my build thread.
I'm getting closer. Just waiting on more parts to come in.
List
Finish front bumper - in progress
Steering go UTK and see how it drives then
Sway bay weld mounts on axle and hook up.
steering stabilizer build mount on axle side.
Headliner, pull down or redo fabric./=
rock sliders finish and install them.
Next winter project list
Swap 89 cab and redo BO wiring.
Swap out the D30 for the D44
Rebuild the D44 with 513 gears and a locker
Rebuild spare 8.8 with locker and 513 gears
Things that may go bad in the mean time, engine looses oil pressure. Might just need an oil change. I don't think I ever changed the oil on this 4.0? I really cant remember I bought the whole truck to put on my bronco II frame and it was a rush thing to get it ready for the mud bogs that spring. It had a lot of work done to the motor before i got it, but the A4LD was bad and at that time it was just a mud bog rig that only went to 1 mud bog lol I've got 2 other spare 4.0s. So well just have to see.
