I decided to start a new thread since my other was already 3 pages deep with not much info

Swept the garage floor and cleaned up after my squirrels. then drug the frame in

Heres a rear shot of it. Sorry for the dark pics but they come from my I-phone and the lighting in the shop is not the best for pitcures.

Just to clarify the block is a spare that I had laying around. Im gonna be using the 360 from the parts waggy. Id like to get the Transmission cross member fabbed up today. It feels kind of a waste of time bolting it all up only to take it back apart but I was also able to get a list of bolts that Im going to need so I can order them from fastenal. The 727 came from a J-10 and I have the socok cross member so Im hoping to modify it to use on the CJ frame.
Back to work!
