I am 'Technically Challenged' and that was the only camera I could figure out how to download on to my computer. I have my daughters working on it though so I should be able to get some good shots posted soon. I just stuffed the motor and tranny today. Easiest job I ever did. Took all of 20 minutes. This was the first time I installed from under and boy what a breeze. One man operation. Well, the heavy stuff is done. Time for the time consumming parts and pieces to start going in.

I am using KYB Gas Shocks which came through white. I scuffed them down and painted them satin black. I am picking up some of the stainless trim. Anyone have an idea for what to use under the trim to seal the vinyl roof edges? I am thinking of a urethane product but not sure if there is something in particular for this.
