My T-18, engine, axle etc swap finally over !!!

Hi all

I've been working on this all winter, and it is finally over. I installed a 1983 Inline 6, a T-18A, a EZ locker and Yukon one piece axle in the rear, OBA, and soft doors.

All went well, and I tested the rig in a trail last Saturday, and appart from a need for a gas tank skid plate (more solid than the last), all works without any trouble.

Here are some pics

And inside the hood, with the shovel and air tank

The overall look of the jeep (I like those tires...)

Looks like you've been busy. Oh, it all looks good too.

 

where in the world did you find a T18?

BTW... she looks fantastic!

i like the mesh in the rear... did a stump get you on the trail?

 

I was lucky, a guy around here was selling a T-18A from a CJ with the dana 20 twinsticked already on it. I paid 525$ for both. And yes, a stump got me !!
