    Bought Olive drab already :D Gonna match the new storage setup back there, it'll look good I promise. I didn't want the tank to get hot being black. That much pressure to begin with, then add a potential temp increase of 60° didn't seem like a good combo for me.

    A few bolts are different.
    The shifter on the forward case looks like it could have been an easy mount to the t-case. Is it a strait shot as it looks or are there a bunch of bends below the trans tunnel?

    An fj case is very high on my want to do list.

    This truck has come a long way since I last saw it at wind rock.

    I clocked the crawler CW (most only clock the t-case) so the shifter was already "directed" to the side of the auto-trans shifter, but there's still a bend or two, but nothing like the twin sticks.

    I will represent for sure, you won't be disappointed if I get chosen!

    While it would be nice, I just don't have the time. And the requirement is a roll bar which I technically have. I just wish other "things" weren't going on right now and I could dedicate more time to mods before the trip.

    One thing I need to do is pull the rear axle and weld the tubes to the center section. A few of the factory plug welds are leaking indicating the tube are moving. Should have welded them the first time around.
