Didn't take a picture of the bellhousing for some reason.

Looks good so far! I may 6 speed swap my Hemi at some point down the road a bit...

Ham Bone Feb 11, 2015 10:45 PM

Was that an NV or had they switched back to the getrags at that point?

I will consult my parts list. you def need the sleeve.

Trans when in today

The bellhousing to trans bolts are 12.5 x 1.75 x 45mm.

Terrible weather hindered my progress today. looks to suck tomrorrow too.

Had to swap my input shaft in the t case to 29 spline. Can't get the thing to go into 2wd now. I have N, 4hi, and 4lo. But no 2wd. SucKs.

Clutch linkage is installed.

All that's left is pedals and the t case, xmemeber


Ok. Fixed the t case. The oil pump rod was flopping around. I put it On Correctly this time. Have 2wd.

I put the t case And read ds in. It fit with no modifications. But it is about an inch shorter. Should be ok for a little while.

No pictures. It's cold, windy, and snow/ice on the ground.
