What did you do for the crossmember? What t-case did you go with?

Nice looking rig! You are making me feel bad, I might have to put "spray painting the door" at the top of the to do list just so I can look at it.

Yes I do have the 4L80E and a stand alone controller that I had on standby for the right project. Thanks 1ton for the input on the doubler. Who did you go with on the adapter?

MMMM Chuckanut Dr........ I could see if I could drum up some folks too.

Congratulations on the new aquisition :beer: We will definately have to keep in touch. I will PM you my contact info. Maybe we can do an unofficial ultra mini rally :driver:
