Yesterday we found out that the truck has actually a 5 speed with a forward shifting transfer case.  The crossmember was held on by 1 bolt per side because it didn't like up with the holes because of the 5 speed.  Appearntly the guy he bought it from had no idea what he had in the truck.  anyway, we got the dual cases in and he will be building the drivelines.  Or they might already be built.  We still have to find a way to mount the Marlin skid plate because of the 5 speed.

Got drivelines done, skid plate mounted and rock sliders started today! tomarrow im gonna finish the sliders. next, hysteer??? thinking about it..... is it pretty easy to install?
