I sold my`72 Custom/10 swb a while back.One Saturday we went to my shop and got it out and hauled it to it`s new home,in site from my house.
It didn`t take long to fill the space.I went up to my brother-in-law`s after that for a party with mutual friends and stayed over.Today(Sunday),we loaded two sets of K/30 axles,a`95 14-bolt/3.73 w/springs,and NV4500/NP241 unit into my trailer.I`ve had all that stashed in his machine shed and figured it was time to consolidate the stuff into my shop.I just backed the trailor in and left it.I was going to unload with my engine hoist.But,that`s alot of work.I`ll wait until he can get by one day with his skid-steer.
I want it unloaded and the stuff properly stored.Then,I can move the cab from my barn at the house to the shop where the short 2wd chassis waits.I guess it`s time to take the motor down and get it in for machining.This is a budget build and I have a TH350.But,man do I want a 4-on-the-floor.I have the peddles and linkage,but that`s it.I guess I`ll put the TH350 in and swap to manual later.
