Sweet! Not much left to do now! I'll bet you can't wait to take it for the maiden voyage. I know I couldn't when I did mine.

Awesome progress man! Really tackled it big time! What's left? T-case linkage, inspection floor cover in the cab, drivelines... What else?!

I love how ford made it easy to do certain swaps...

That's what Shaner and I did... 12am start on my auto tranny... 3am finish on removal of almost all automatic related parts... Then 9am start the next day (for me)..

Can't wait to see what you think about being in the 4wd club Tyler!

Im beginning to think I should not be allowed around cameras, especially with a lack of sleep. Every single picture ever taken of me I look like i am down syndrome...hmm...maybe I need to have that looked at...
