Only 2 to get started. There's plenty more, it's just not cold. Yet...

Let me know if it'll be tonite or in the morning. If it'll be in the morning, I might take Lisa to dinner and a movie or something. I also may have to go to Duluth to pick up parts in the morning, depending on where you want to start, engine-trans-tcase or the reverse...

I'll be away from the computer so text or call. Forgot I haven't pressure washed the undercarriage yet... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

You probably can't see the spindles are also off.. And the front diff is on the bench for an Aussie to be installed.

Time to start re assembly on everything!

You'll probably need to jack the front of the transmission a little, so the engine can be aligned before it rests on the mounts.
