Yesterday I installed the pedal assembly, e-brake pedal and cable, hooked brakes and throttle cables up. Installed the dash and reconnected all the wires, cleaned up some of the wires in engine compartment. Decided not to put in air box and heater assembly since the tub is short term. Looped the heater hose to itself.

Today, reinstalled fuel filler hoses and filler neck. Installed steering column. Installed a new to me B& M tranny shifter. Pulled the skid and tranny pan to clean up old fluid (glad I did because it had a little water in it), replaced tranny filter, drained and replaced D300 fluid. Had issues getting the skid back on, finally got it, still some minor issues, so I hope it holds. Added antifreeze. Installed battery tray and battery. Removed mechanical fan on engine and replaced pulley with shorter bolts. Installed driver's seat.

Started it up and took it for a drive around the block!!!!

Cleaned up the diamond plate where I cut out the bulkhead. Installed the passenger seat.

Alright it is as done as it is going to be. We installed tuffy overhead console, CB in console, another fuel pump, changed the oil, fabbed a dip stick from a universal one because I lost mine on my last trail ride. Fabbed up a Hi Lift mount on the roll cage, installed the hood, cleaned up wiring under the hood, zip tied vent hoses, had to fix and fab a mount for driver fender against the tub, drill holes through diamond plate in bed to get to rear seat nuts then had to tap them, and mount rear seat. Installed the sliders. What took the longest today was tweeking the roll cage to fit properly (I bought it from someone else and it has never been in my scrambler...it didn't bolt right in :banghead:. With the help of ratchet straps and fabbing some plates for the C pillar attachment we got-er-dun!!!

Unfortunately the windshield didn't get done and have some turn signal issues, but just didn't get to it, so it goes without.

So before we can pull out tomorrow, we have to rewire the trailer, pack tools and spares, pack clothes, load the scrambler and head down. We may not be there until late Wed night, but we will be there.
