Happy 4th... and 5th!
Here's my buddy Spencer with his cheese eatin grin. We were able to plop out the t-case onto the jack and roll it out smoothly... that explains the grin.
T-case and front axle out, by this time the exhaust had been removed and disposed.
Here she comes...
...and there she goes...

Awesome guys.
Beau, the Patrol looks awesome with the top off. Must be fun.
Justin, you are making some progress, eh? It's giving me flashbacks to the Trooper motor swap!

Yeah, it's comin along. I get slowed down by other people and that bugs me. The junkyard locked my Jeep in their lot overnight (July 3rd) when they closed at 2 pm even though they told me they would have it all pulled out by noon.The new stuff is STILL at the junkyard! Luckily they didn't clip any of the wires when removing everything... wish I would have been able to remove all that stuff myself cuz now I have a box of bolts and don't know where they all go, wires unlabeled, and the motor and trans separated. They also said they couldn't sell used cats so I have to figure out what to do about that still. I will pick up all the goods and start placing the motor and trans between the frame rails and checking clearances this weekend...
I have 4 BFG MT's with no more than 200 miles and lifetime warranty on them. I took them in to have them swapped on my new set of used 15" 6-lug rims and they found a pin hole in the sidewalls of two tires. Since BFG discontinued that style MT I can't match my set of tires anymore. LAME! I wanted the old style... but they are 10+ years old so maybe its for the best. Now I am tire shopping at Discount Tire since they told me they would be willing to prorate the two good tires and reimburse me for the ruined two. So I should only be paying for four new warranties and maybe 10% of cost on two other tires. So now I am wondering if I should get new wheels too, in 16" flavor!
The axles should arrive next week and when they do I will be taking measurements to find out what offset and backspacing I am looking for...

I am going to run these or similar:They also said they couldn't sell used cats so I have to figure out what to do about that still.
You can find these on any major auto parts site or ebay including knockoffs for less. Hope this helps!
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on me.

Any sawzalling the fenders to fit some monsters (38's?)The S-10 you were talking about gave me more wallet ache than inspiration! My project is going pretty low budget... or trying to... I'm starting with 33"s since it is to be a daily driver/weekend wheeler/camper.
