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.

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.

but i knew about that part going into it haha...was i pissed when i bolted the t-case to the tranny and has 1/4 inch between the tailhousing and the case...then after modifying everything to fit and some other stuff...about 3 hours of time later, i break the damn tailhousing!!! so i had to start all over again...but the second time was easier i knew how much i had to take off where...boke out the heavy equipment and got er dun LOL


heres those pics...i am missing something....im guessing is a VSS, considering i can see a plastic sleeve on the output shaft with spiral teeth...whatever was in there was strong, the plug i made blew out in a hurry hahahaha....now there oil everywhere but in the case gotta figure that out lol

inserts into the hole below



then my sexeh fab skills...more like 20 min with a drill a torch and an impact gun LOL



this might be a problem...oh well my truck dont flex anyway








and ground hawgs...from the roadkills point of view

Yeah, that hole is for the spedo gear on the O.E. trucks. Should be a bolt hole beside it. Cut a plate and bolt it on

Yeah you can see the hole for the bolt. A little piece of metal plate should work out good.

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!
