Hey man.... Can't be having no phones in welding class.

All I did was clean up a washer and tig it to the under side with a nut so it'll thread to the shifter. I'll get a pic tomorrow.

Just like you said. It had to be a clean break.

 

[GearHead11]

Just like you said. It had to be a clean break.

Yup, best case scenario. With this break I don't have clean a bunch of little pieces out of the t case

 

[broncosbybart]

Got the Bronco back, fabbed a storage area for under the pass seat, and then made a trip to Line-X.

Body color is grabber blue- shows up weird in pics.

 

[McCracken]

Pulled the plugs on the V8 sitting in the Willys truck and put some Mystery Oil in the cylinders. I'm going to let it sit for a day or so and then turn it over by hand. After that I'll change the oil and filter and look to see if it fires.

[CasterTroy]

I took @Jason W. and @josh$$ advice and got a @Barnes 4wd 2" skid plate. Finished installing it today

 

[josh$$]

That's alot better than that 4 1/2 inch shovel that was under there

 

[CasterTroy]

Yep. No more dragging across everything like an old man's sack Dippin in the toilet water

Did you use the stock transmission mount?

 

[CasterTroy]

Did you use the stock transmission mount?

Yes. It looked fine but I think I need a thicker one (if that exists) because the case is within .01's of the plate

 

[obullfish]

Uh oh, 6.Ford. Whats the story?

Probably just changing the oil.

 

[Jody Treadway]

Youll need a standoff for the mount studs.
Here's what I did on a customer's install.
I took a 3" piece of 2x4 box about .120", cut in half making 2 pieces of c channel. Made one of those pieces of channel about 3/4" tall. Drilled 4 holes in it for the studs fall into, marked and welded it to the skid.

 

[rockcity]

Finished refurbishing my fuel cell and installing the baffles.
