Hi Eric,
Had some ilness that slowed things way down. Chris came and helped with drivetrain removal while I watched from my chair.
Engine/tranny/transfer came out to get new paint. Grey hammer under and body color engine compartment.
Back in and it runs. Fluids are in drove it to get the shop organized The plane is gone and I have more room and time to fix the Jeep and work on the 72.
Decision made to trash the old carpet and stock seats. I will research that stuff and buy & install next spring after Jeep Safari. New modern seats require a cage mod so I have some fab to do. The Ex Avalanch fab guy will add the new gusset at the B pillar after I cut out the old ones that interfere with the seats.
So the Jeep has been time consuming with new gears and alloy axles and the Rubi lockers are gone and ARB in both axles. Rebuild the rear tire carrier cuz the thing was coming apart. Took some time. "Trail ready" is sure a joke.
Got lots of used Jeep stuff to sell
