I've been off here for a while working like mad to make some progress on the truck. Hope these pics all turn out. First is a shot of the frame painted in primer black epoxy after a complete sandblast.
This is a pic of the engine ready to drop in with trans attached
This is a shot of the "spicer plate" I copied from pictures posted here, after trial and error I wound up trimming it down about 2 5/8" and redrilling the holes for clearance of the eng mount bolts
This is a shot of the trans mount I copied from pictures here
Heres the 1/4" plate (don't know the runout Bob) and motor mount attached
Heres the short shaft and look closely on the bottom right you can see the trans mount
This is a shot of the pass side xfer case mount, I used 3/8" x 2" stock and after working it into place using the stock mount as a reference I canted the verticle piece a few degrees for fitment prior to welding
Okay, I'd like to take credit for all of this mount but the transfer case already had the upper part of this mount included, so I just assymilated it into my own needs and made the sides and bottom using the stock mount for alignment and fitting
