Currently battling blistering cold and rain. Lately we've been getting about 3 to 4 hours of usable sunshine on weekends. But there is still progress. I wanna hit the snow with this thing so bad.
We got the transmission bolted to the engine, torque converter installed.
We measured everything before hand and even had the transfer case mount slid on the back of the transmission. Took measurement after measurement and we were still .20 off the mark. If only Advance Adapters made it just a little bit thicker. We ended up milling the shaft and everything went together as planned. The gap between the transmission and transfer case is exactly 1.875. I wish I would have put the starter on with the engine out to check the clearance.
Went to the local Amsoil dealer and picked up a bunch of various fluids. I'm just going to use BMW blue coolant and BMW DOT4 because it's cheap and I have a ton of it on hand. I use it in everything I build.
Also, my dad is having trouble using his account. If there are any admins that can help, his username is Riff_Raff.
