Wheeling a fullsize
Got to love dual transfer cases!!! Truck is looking real good WK. Wish I was coming down next month but it will be next year. I really hope I can have my TJ running this year.
Keep the great pictures coming of your progress on the truck.

Thanks Bossss!!
I did hook up the E-brake yesterday. What a damn relief for a bolt on part... lol
I can't reuse the hard line that came on the rear axle is I knicked it with the grinder and made a hole on the rear side. No auto parts store has these direct replacements for the hardline, nor the rubber outers to the calipers with banjos on the end.
So it looks like I check with the dealer, but I did find on Rock Auto the outer portions and so would just need to create the hard lines to come to the junction block. frackin heck...

Looking good Nukle! That black box and t-case combo sure is long, I bet your driveshaft angles are ideal. I'm curious to see what you do with crossmember/mount set up. I've always wanted to fab up a stronger crossmember with more clearance to replace that stock one but damn my couch is comfortable, lol. Keep up the good work!
Forming up the hard lines is a pain in the buttttttt. But you can do it.
I don't have a very good e-brake on the Jeep. The disc brake setup is from the Ford Explorer and has a small drum like setup inside that is the e-brake. So one of these days I plan on getting the disc brake setup for the rear of my t-case. I like that idea better plus it will hold a lot better.
I wish I had the length in the Jeep to run dual cases.

You should have had the xmember done long time ago!!! I've got a concept in mind.

I found a place where they have a plethora of brake shiz that I can build out the whole line for well under $100....all SS braid + up to the banjo! It's near the driveshaft place...so it's going to be a 2fer on progress!!
