I removed the old wheel wells in the back in prep for new longer ones and made some more body mounts. I also mounted the Mustang hydroboost and made a huge notch in the tranny tunnel for the fuel pedal to be mounted near the center of the vehicle . The column shift steering column arrived as well as the dimple die for making steps out of the rock sliders. I'll take some picture tomorrow.

The back of the 4BT is the same as a 6BT ( Cummins ) so I used the adapter and trans from a 92 Dodge Cummins. Same starter also and the belt drive from the front of the Dodge.
