    You really gonna do an overland build on this? If so, I'd be down to build some storagey kind of drawers/platform like the overpriced goose gear stuff. Get some heavy duty draw slides and handles and such....could be a fun project

    It depends on how reliable it proves to be. Gonna make small ventures in known territory where I have friends that can rescue us if needed. Before we add too much weight in the rear we'll need to upgrade the suspension.

    Pulled the Transmission output seal, replaced it while I could, and installed the T-case with new rubber mounts. Thanks again @diverdale for welding up the jack support.

    Had to resize the hole for the new shifter, and missing a few pieces of skin from installing the wiring and shifter connections through the awkward trans tunnel hole.

    T-case should be completely resealed now, unless I forgot something... Shit I forgot about forgetting things..
    Tomorrow I'll start the bolt up of the parking brake, driveshafts, exhaust, and cross members, after I refill the T-case and make sure it holds oil.

    Battery was dead, hooked up the charger and then got chased out by realtor..

    Battery charged enough to start, verified it goes in and out of hi/low/lock. Will take it off the jackstands as soon as I air out the garage and tighten the lug nuts.

    But "except for the trans" everything is good right? lol I'm looking for a project vehicle now. Gonna sell the Saleen soon to free up a spot in the garage ;) (and cash) Been looking for Jeep XJ on and off for a while but I'm open to civics/integras as well as miatas... I'd do a disco if the price was right since I know a guy that's got some recent experience ... lol
