I think he has it in, but last I knew, was fighting a lifter noise or something.

He's got the shifter mount and the stuff for the t-case, but been busy with work and stuff.

Been playing with the Furd too much.

No it's not entirely done yet. I worked on it this morning some, got the transfer case shifter installed today with the exception of installing and adjusting the rod. Once that's done, I can proceed to put the crossmember in, then the dshafts. Then it's home stretch from there . I have a little interior work to do on the floor and some interior wiring but that's pretty much all inside. As for the noise from the engine it is almost entirely gone once the engine is warmed up so I'm not going to worry about that right now.

I've been sick unusually often this winter, so that has kept me out of the truck for a total of a couple weeks or so, then the cold temps did the same, then finding parts.

You know dodge dude, if I didn't have the Ford I wouldn't be working on the Dodge right now . It's freed up alot of time for me that would have otherwise been spent doing the work by hand. I'll be posting updates here as I make progress. I'll have it done before long.

Well I've put this project on hold for now (I'll finish it but not now). Explanation over here https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...367-build.html
