The rebuild of a rebuild

Here's a picture of my handy dandy "machine work".

Was workin on it today and happened to notice the engine tilted over to the passenger side a few degrees. Passenger t-case mount bolts backed out.

Not really sure why they backed out. There was a lock washer on both bolts. I'm gonna chase the threads, and put it back together with red locktite and check on it periodically.


This is the driver side mount

As far as updates, the t-case has been twin sticked and a threw a spartan locker up front. Looking for a semi-built 60 to replace it though. Want one with 5.38 gears, locker, and high steer arms if anyone knows of one.
 
It's been sitting partially torn apart in the driveway for a while now. Finally decided to do some work on it. Swapped motors, new fuel cell, redid some of the fuel lines, will be re-working the front bump stops, and linking the rear.

Turn your speakers up, you can almost hear the parts breaking behind it :redneck:

I think this truck will be retired at the end of summer, the frame on it is getting pretty haggard(sp), and there's too much **** I want to redo. Until then, I plan on beating it to a pulp.
 
Sold this to a buddy. Kinda sad it's not mine anymore, but glad it's not my headache anymore, even though it will still be sitting at this house:redneck:
