[QUOTE="hokie_yj, post: 482903, member: 4238"] I haven't had a lot of time in the garage over the last couple weeks, but I've piddled around a got a little bit done when I've had the chance. The more I looked at the tubing I had added for the interior panels the less I liked it. So I cut it all out and will start over on that. When I originally did it I wasn't thinking ahead and just threw it in there. But I realized that if I didn't make it removable that the only way I could ever pull the tranny or t-case would be to pull the whole drivetrain. So when I re-do it I'll use tube couplers so it can be removed and the tranny or t-case can be pulled from the inside. I worked on mounting the ECU. This is a BinksFab ECU mount that I modified a little bit to work for me. I added the three bolts on the top to mount my TAC module to, and changed up the mounting bracket a little bit. I just plugged the wiring harness up to make sure everything was going to reach.
