    Have to pick up new transmission fill and drain plugs to change the trans oil. The current plugs will be destroyed getting them loose.

    D5E9BC57-6F03-44BA-B475-4362D630FFF3.jpg New Marlin Crawler clutch, flywheel, pilot/throwout bearing, and rear main. Also restored the mudflaps this week.

    Next on the list is a pesky gear oil leak from the top of the transfer case.

    If one is good, 2 is better.

    More parts are coming in a week. The long road to completed SAS on the 88 has rounded the first turn.

    I have the trail gear 3” springs for front and 63” chevys for the rear. Bilstein 12” 5125 shocks. I may end up swapping out the top 2 leafs from the trail gear pack to RUF leafs, we’ll see how the height of the truck turns out. Only running 35’s. Ended up going 5.29/ARB/high pinion in the front diff.
