So far I have changed all fluids and filters, greased driveline and changed my motor mounts. But now I have got a pretty annoying exhaust leak, so this weekend the manifold will be coming off, I have to extract a broken bolt that the last guy left..... I got some more pics to share....

Well I have a quick update. I know its been a while......

Well This could have been really bad if I was wheeling when it happened..... I was driving to work and my oil pump basically blew up. The oil filter came apart and clogged the pickup screen. It smoked the motor. So I had to get it to the machine shop. It took 2 months but I came back with a new bored .30 over engine with racing roller rockers, stainless valves and rods, new crank, new cam, and a whole lot more power. It wasn't cheap, pretty much ate up my suspension fund.....

Ive also removed the stock fender trim and will be removing front and rear bumpers in place for pre-runner style tubes and will be cutting my rear quarter panels for better approach angles and cutting 5 inches off of my front fenders.

Up next is some good gears and tires.

Pics soon........
