A little more progress to date. I have my new radiator installed (Perf. Radiator did great work), still working on a hose for the bottom. Through a miscommunication, the bottom fitting isn't exactly aligned with the engin, so I need to make a "Z" type bend. I've ordered metal flex hose from Summit, we'll see if that does the trick. (I couldn't find a universal rubber flex hose short enough). With that, I'll have the cooling handled.

I need to install the fuel filter and transmission cooler and fill fluids, charge the AC, etc. Then tackle wiring mess. That should be interesting. I'm hoping to at least start it in a few weeks.

Lingering issues that I'm saving for last are the suspension cross member and the rear driveshaft. Neither should be too bad, just a matter of dealing with them.

I see the end of the tunnel, just making slow progress at this point. I need to take a vacation from work to focus on the Trooper .
