Per my title of this thread, I anticipated some work delays putting this swap together! Over the winter, I managed to fix some seals on my transfer case and get the modified adapter installed.
Best/worst of all was scraping and wire wheeling the floor pan and frame rails. After many terrible hours slingin dirt and rust in my eyes, I finally got everything cleaned up and painted underneath. Used Eastwood Rust Encapsulator and Xtreme Chassis Black to clean things up. This effort was 90% for rust prevention and 10% for show. Definitely not beautiful powder coat like some of you guys, but it's done!
Next up: Advanced Adapters install on the trans, then the trans and t case will be installed.
