This was yesterday but the app kept crashing on me. Even now, I can't get the pics up. Anyways...

I got the brown dog motor mounts in. Went real easy after I put the pins in first and they went right in. Also ended up taking the oil filter adapter off. Gonna see if I can find an o-ring for it before I put it back together.

I got all the hardware installed on the RC xmember.

Then I started on the rear suspension. I had to hack away part of the rear quarter panel (I was going to do a cut n fold anyways) to the the impact on the shackle box bolt. It wouldn't budge. Sprayed it all down with PB laster and called it a day.

I also realised that the RC shackle reloacators I have, won't work with my 91 without drilling a couple holes. ****!

So I'm gonna save those for my 99 and probably build some for my 91. Dammit.

Isn't that what I was trying to tell you? Or am I missing something?

Nope, I tested the easiest thing first and got lucky. Stuck the one from my 89 on there. The fuel pump is whining but it just needs some fresh gas and seafoam.

Cruiser, you did say that. I also said I was going to try that in the last sentence you quoted of mine on that question in the "ask a question" thread. Lol

All that matters is they're in.
