Are you guys really gonna do all this in just two days? wow.
sidethought... do you want some javascript code for the webpage that will _just_ update the pic and not the whole page?

I can extend you some credit for the spacers and you can pay me later if you need to. The bolts you can just have since they are used, they are still fine, but I can't sell them.

With great impact to all of you, it is likely I won't be able to stop by and take a look and meet all you guys on Saturday nor take the run on Sunday.
I will be at the BILL LUKE DODGE BASS TOURNAMENT at LAKE PLEASENT the entire weekend.
Sorry to ruin the day for you guys

Vernon did some transmission magic and the W59 is good to go, the thing crawls well, we tested it and then today we fabricated a buch of stuff includeing a W59 tranny (4WD) bracket for a 2WD crossmember.
There is alot more different on a 2WD than meets the eye but in the end we did it, it's fully converted.
