Changing to a TH400, 4:1 Klune V, D300 (rebuilding) twin stick cable shift.

Split the cover plate and made the hole for the shifter to stick up. By splitting the cover plate I can remove the front plate to access my tie down brackets.

In this picture you can see they didn't put a screw on front side like the back side. That leaves the little tab loose from the side panel. I think I am going to drill the top plate and add a screw. It will be slightly different because the side panel flange at that point is not as wide underneath the cover for some reason. So the screw will not be in the same line as the others.

Still playing with the console. Mounted my Dual band ham radio under one of the cover panels. 20220416_102252.jpgresized.jpg

With the cover in place..........

I am installing a VOSwitch system. Mounted the switch control head on the console. 20220310_140216.jpgresized.jpg

Also added some 12V power receptacles to the console.

I'm curious (contemplating my own setup), why did you chose to go with the Klune vs. putting 4:1 gears in the D300?
 
More choice. 3 different ranges possible. 4:1 with just klune V, 2.62? With just the D300, how does that work 4 times 2.62 with both in. I can also have 4:1 in 2 wheel if I want. Low enough to break everything If I get stupid!
 
This has been sitting dormant for quite some time. Left home on June 6th for an RV trip, got back August 4. Traded in my camper on a newer one between then and September 1. Had been thinking about a Super C motor home, decide not to go that route and keep the camper ie the trade in. But also found a Small class c motor home and picked it up as well. Figure the camper for 4X4 trips with Jeep/trailer and sight seeing trips with the Class C flat towing the stock Jeep. Left town again Sept. 9 got back October 15th., been playing catch for the last month and a half. Maintenance on the stock Jeep, leaking gaskets on the F450, Rear main seal on the non stock LJ. Had to drive the CJ6 for a while, still haven't worked out all the bugs with it yet. Had the brake light switch fall and suspect a exhaust leak on the left manifold need look into. But this week decided to start back on this project for awhile and a change of pace.
 
BTW, where did you get the Klune V. Last time I looked, it appeared they were not available anymore...?

I have had it a loooong time. It had been shelved a long time while I worked on my CJ6.
 
Between traveling around the US in the Camper and trying to get caught up around the house not much has been done, but starting to get back at it.
 
Painted it, put all the parts and pieces together, running wiring through the console to a fuse bock on the front and ground terminal bock as well. This will limit the number of wires I have to feed to the console to just 12v=+ and 12V- and the Voss Switch cable, and antenna coax for the radios.20230317_122937.jpg20230317_122948.jpg20230317_123000.jpg20230317_123006.jpg
 
I didn't think it was going to get any better so took out the wood blade and switched to the metal blade.

Any one else it thinking along these lines let me know I screwed the wood templates to the wall I can trace them out on something mail able.
This is fantastic. If you still have the templates, I'd love a set. This is exactly how I want to mount everything

Send me and address and I will trace them out on paper and mail you them, I think I keep them.
 
If I would stay home long enough I might get some thing done. Updates to hopefully to follow soon.
 
Not sure if I missed this, but what engine are you bolting the TH400 to?
