All those side jobs and starting to sell parts from the donor rigs is paying off. Still a lot of parts to sell so it’s looking great.
Engine was fully rebuilt 2 years ago (needs to be cleaned up some) but already has heavy duty valve springs, new head, main, pistons, bearings, etc. but going to receive new water pump, oil pump, thermostat, all gaskets, power steering pump, vacuum pump,rebuilt second gen turbo, hoses, clamps, and belt. It’s all sitting here and all factory Cummins stuff. Why not make it last another 30 years?
Transmission as posted is a fresh rebuilt nv4500 with all the fixes and heavy duty stuff. I found a factory slave cylinder complete setup for 2nd gen and it’s ordered. New factory clutch fork and spring along with a heavy duty South Bend clutch, throw out, and pressure plate is here. Factory bell house and adapter plate ready to go.
Transfer case has proved to be tough because most conversions, many rock crawlers and even just people looking to upgrade there stuff use the 205 from the Dodge diesel and the manual version (that’s built more solid because it doesn’t have the slosh box auto attached) is even tougher. Tomorrow offering one but it’ll takes week to build. Also ordered direct bolt in kit from Advance Adapter. Got the right trans cross member and and mount already here.
Carrier bearing and all u joints are coming Spicer Extremes.
Intercooler is here but need new boots yet, 3200 gov spring here.
Quick ratio Red Head steering box, Borgeson telescopic steering shaft and full kit are here. Bilstien shocks coming.
Think that’s the full list of s*** either in the driveway or in the way.
Much more soon but knocked out most of it!
Hopefully y'all are mostly smoke free, it would be hard to breathe with the smoke very thick.
