Some progress worth reporting

Started lowering the motor..... Moving it down 1" and back 3/4" to help with clearance around the steering box.... but I'm more than likly going to have to move the s-box also...

Here is the start of the carrier bearing x-memeber... I'll finish it after I get he engine in place.

My mind and my projects have alot in common..... I can't seem to finish my projects or complete a thought........

Shit is expensive but may work Ryan...

www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplayPopup?storeId=10001&catalogId=10002&productId=829284&itemId=829914&langId=-1&showValue=1

It looks to be a manual rack setup as well. The steering ratio on that probably sux.

This right here is power and looks nice as well. No prices on the site though

Let me know what needs to be done Ryan! I have a feelin its gonna be an expensive ride here soon...LOL!!!

I'm going to look at just getting a pump from an Astro Van, they were remote set-ups. Other than that all that is needed is a smaller pully for now.
