Jee Paul, do you think that much about all of your projects? And another tip for you, don't stand in front of a moving vehicle, that can squish you too. 
Oh and Dono, pull the transmission yourself. What are you, a woman?

I don't know, but theres a pretty big hole in the pavement from where it fell. Then I lifted the new one onto the bronco by myself while dubz stared in awe of my strength.
edit: I'm pretty sure he was smoking a cig while that happened too.

the BW1356 probably wouldnt be too bad...its that NP205 i gotta watch out for haha...
man i didnt think id have to cut that much out of my tranny tailhousing to fit that NP-205...wow, no kidden that t-case cracks everything looks like that kills a lot of structural integrity...i should see if i can weld up some braces to that tailhousing to help keep it strong haha

Make a separate crossmember for the NP205. The three bolt holes on the left side, and the inspection cover on the other side make a good mounting location. That's what I did on mine when I put in the doubler.

yeah i was thinking that...plus side is i wanted to get some decent oil in there anyway...now i have to, probably not much left LOL...oh well chit happens...my breather must be clogged or soemthing, the plug i made didnt even make it home, so there is obviously a fair bit of pressure there
today i got my shifters built for the most part...still need to bend em up a bit so they dont jab into my legs while i r driving...but other than that, no floor pan modification necessary, no extra materials, just used the two shifters and made them work...needs a boot though
all hacked up
all welded up
hey they fit!
