Cj7 Finally On It's Way
Power on: Did the transfer case remain in stock position in your setup? So the driveline lenghts are original (or not?)??
Seems like it did remain in the stock position in the first photos.
What auto tranny have you got?

Power on: Thanks for the comment. I am using a shorter 3-speed tranny (TCI TH350 4x4) so I should be able to retain the original position of the transfer case.
Why I am asking this is that it may be that I am changing in axles that have a quite a long pinion (nose) and the transfer case should remain in stock position to be able to do this.

The steering pump is the stock off the 5.3 with rerouted lines. I can't tell everyone enough how much fun it is to drive. I am in the process of installing a MagnaCharger just for fun. Anyway keep us posted and let's see it.
Thanks

Also you said you had more throttle response with air box did you fab.? a box or buy one. If brought where and part# please. Well body is off to painter.I'am putting finish touches on drive train stuff like painting sterring shaft. brake booster, rad.frame steering colum.Putting fluids in front rear axles, transfer case. How is super charger going?
PS,This weekend we have had 15 inchs of snow with blizzard warings.Temps around 0 to -7 below sure makes Hawaii sound good!
THANKS AGAIN, HUMJ7

Power On
Thank you! I did end up buying a lokar cable.Bought all the stuff to make my own air intake. Just got done wiring the jeep. Leds gave me a little promblem,figured out you need a led flasher for the blinkers when you run leds.I am so close to being done I can taste it.
So, what is this Subaru Eating Bug?

POWER ON, I'm doing a similar swap with the 5.3 and the stock t-18. How much was the Radiator/fan set up? Did you upgrade the stock axles and do they hold up to what you have in it, or did you swap them out?
