    These buckets are great, I'm surprised you've never had one. Honestly I ran across these just by chance myself...

    Oh my gosh your skill level way beyond me. What are you doing to that transmission?

    Got an option for ya, I just purchased a BDRM from a fellow TW member oostroma that has a piece that screws onto said BDRM, that fits perfectly behind the trim around the AC vent that will provide just what you are looking for. Don’t have any pictures yet, waiting on some Ram connectors to ship to get it all set up. Check it out, I’m very pleased with the fit with the BDRM

    Iron man foam cell pro setup with their heavy duty leaf springs and coil springs were finally installed/finished being installed today. Took close to 20 hours of solo driveway labor to make it happen. I’m hoping it settles a bit over the next couple thousand miles, but hey, no more Dakar squeak from my previous OME setup. Getting some driveline vibes at 25mph which is probably from the lift being higher than previously (2in to 3in). I have some extra U-joint shims that I may play around with or even add washers to the screws.

    I have never really looked for any until I joined here, and haven't been in the paint section in 10-13 years...

    Thanks, I did a total rebuild on it with race fabrics and steels (clutch packs) and bands, I had already built the valve body and converted it to a full manual valve body, meaning it no longer has any automatic functions, what ever gear you put it in moving or not, it is in that gear... It is my fun car...

    But yes, I have built many transmissions over the years as well as engines, rear ends and basically anything mechanical related to vehicles, plus much much more... lol

    The valve body mostly apart...

    I wish I could say the same haha painting is challenging physically and mentally.

    Very interesting, I didn't know that an AT could be converted to MT, like this, a very clever hack indeed. You appear to know the AT very, very well.

    It still has a torque converter (still a 2 pedal), but it will not upshift or downshift on it's on, and when I hit the 1-2 shift, it is a crazy fast shift and feels like you are being kicked in the back by a mule, the 2-3 shift feels like the back of the car is being slammed by a big hammer... There is no delay, when I shift gears it is instant... I also custom built the rear end and have a custom built driveshaft in it...
    It is set up for red light to red light racing.. N/A engine, no power adders (yet)...

    And OWL or sometimes called ROWL is Outline White Letter or Raised Outline White Letter...
    Meaning that only the outline of the letter is raised and outlined, vs RWL where the whole letter is raised and solid white...
