My jeep build, 5.0L SOA ect..
So i figure ide share some of my progress so far...which is really slow due to the fact that i work 10 hour nigh shifts and get about 1 day to work on the truck a week. Gotta pay for it somehow!
Plan is 5.0L > T-18 > NP205 > ford 8.8 and D44 each locked with 4.88's and cromoly shafts, high steer Chevy disc break conversion for front ect.. to 38.5 TSL SX's. My garage consists of some dirt and maybe a small alder for shade. Anyways, enough talk here are some pics in relative order up till now. Before:      During:

Well, i didnt get much done on the truck last this weekend. I did take a dip and spent money on the tires/wheels and some break lines though. I also took a little bit of a look at the wiring mess and tried to figure out how i was going to do this. Looks like it should go together fairly easy..i hope. Im still waiting for my conversion motor mounts to arrive from advance adapters before i drop it in.
The thing that sucks about living on an island is that if i need a small part or bolt for something, i need to spend half a day to go get it from a parts store in town..plus the cost for ferry/gas.

 Ferry costs suck. When I use to travel all over the US doing service work I had to take a few ferries and it does suck!!! You got your tires, what did you end up getting? Todd
