Thanks. Your rig is pretty much what I have in mind. (But with a plow on the front.)
not sure bout the 4 speed. mine currently has a 700r4 with a cable. Planning on a nv4500 soon. but thats a top loader so it won't be much of a concern for me. Trans case shifter worked out fine.
I ditched the stock cooling fan for electric
My steering column was broke up inside so I ended up putting a van column in. That is something else for you to consider
