Sorry....I was bored. The motor and tranny have officially been removed. And yes....that is most of the harness hanging off the motor. I didnt see any need to save it, so I cut it in half.

Cool! Looks good! Just to remind everyone tell us why you are ripping it out.

That reminds me of when I did my 4wd swap. Swapping out the motors was a pain in the sand. I had to use my uncles 4wd truck to strap the hoist to and push it around. And use ply boards under the wheels to push it.

Sold the tranny to help pay for a manual swap for my good truck. Not sure what Im doing with the motor yet. The cab off this truck will be scrapped soon, and the pickup box turned into a trailer.

That white truck is getting cut in half. It has no title, and now no running gear. I also gutted it of most of its usable parts. I still need to pull the dash out and some small misc things, but it will be getting chopped up as soon as I refill my oxy/acy tanks. I was smart and left the valves open.
