Not enough accomplished today, but a step here and a step there gets me closer...Lock-tited the bell housing to tranny, installed the torque converter cover (or inspection plate) and installed rear drive-shaft.We mounted it further back than I would have wanted, but we put it where the mounting bolts were best suited. So with that, the rear Tom Woods drive-shaft needed to be shortened. So we broke out the chop saw and made it shorter... Great! Just what a YJ needs... a shorter rear drive-line. I'm not going to worry about the front yet, but that's gotta be longer by about 2"... It's one of the few things remaining on the Jeep that was stock, so I can't complain too much.Next step will be the shifters... I got a cool bracket that came with the kit to allow for the factory NP231 shifter to sit beautifully right on top of the transmission. So that will be next, then maybe build a box and figure out the Winters shifter that I got.No pictures this time...
