Pics of the progress:

In addition to Special Kitty Racing Litter, the AZ crew has picked up a new sponsor. Scrubbing Bubbles Engine Detailer. Kate Upton ignored our repeated requests to appear as our spokes model, much to our disappointment, but we have the next best thing: PA JERO!



Hosing off the engine detailer, and TOASTY's newest two wheeled project. We're not sold on the color yet. He is planning on swapping in a diesel and 35's.



Me in the engine bay putting on the AC bracket and newer torque converter. Dreaming that a V-8 might fit in there.



Finishing up the rear main seal and flex plate. Yes, that is my now running Montero in the background!



Dropping the engine in place.



All bolted in!

You guys rock! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

This week the Rad should get put in, electrical hooked up, power steering, A/C and what not. I can probably get the winch bolted up as well. I am gonna get some rattle cans and get that bumper sprayed, but I will get with toast and see if we need to wrap up the bumper anymore first.

I figure my goal is to get a little bit done each day to just keep it moving. I will make it over to adams to pick up the transfer case sometime this week or maybe pat can do it on his way home from work one day, Then we can tackle that project. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Sounds great. Steady progress seems like the way to go.I think I will work on some wheel spacers this week.

Here ya go...


Also, although it looks right, you need to ensure the center bore is big enough for the Mitsu.<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

What? Couldn't get the model into a two piece for the photo shoot! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> I need to make a weekend trip down to meet all you guys and shoot the breeze. All I've met is toasty.

AW! Wheel spacers, this reminds me. We need lug nuts fellas. The stock ones don't fit.

Hey, we don't mess around here. yes heath, you do need to come down. Next time we have a weekend wrench a thon, you should be here for all the funny ridiculousness. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

The spacers will come with all new hardware, We need to look back in this post and figure out what Lloyds wheel backspace is so he'll know what size to get.

for some reason i'm thinking he needs a 2" spacer.

Let me know if it is the 2" and I will pop on those. Also what adress do they go to this time?
