Alright, well for an update, I fixed the t-case linkage issue, i had to grind a little lip off of my t-case lever, and i used a washers made out of plate, cut the same pattern of the tcase lever bracket. So now i can use 4wd. Also took an old m5od boot and cut the bottom to put it over my shift lever until my new boot comes in. Getting some batteries tomorrow for the camera so i can get some pics. Trans is doing great, i still need to check the bellhousing to engine bolts to make sure they havent backed up any. Best part of all is i dont get the diesel rattle i was getting with the a4ld and cracked spacer.
So ive been trying to figure out what im gonna do next and i have a list
1)Im gonna remove the light bar and cheapo lights, and mount the lights under the rig as rock lights.
2)Ditching the push bar/grill guard, and about to start on a bumper, gonna cut the bottom of the fenders off flush with the front plate under the grill.
3)I need some poly body bushings really bad, so i think thats gonna be next, gonna do a 1" body lift while im at it.
4)Gonna drop the coil buckets about 1.25" and cut 1 turn off of my superlift xj coils(to stiffen em up some, and im gonna keep my spacers, but cut them in half. my goal is 5" with 2.5" pivot drops, RA drops, and camber bushings. if it dont work Ill get some skyjacker 4" pivots. already saving for some 35's and wheels
I'll be doing alot of free shit this week, as i just spent about $570 in total on the 5spd swap(thats with a free trans!!), and being sick last week had my check looking a little skinny. Ill be taking alot of pics or some of the stuff i need to tie up, gonna clean up alot of underhood wiring as well. Thinking about black indoor-outdoor carpet over my carpet, esp since i had to butcher it up to get the new floor plate in
