I was at it all day.. ensuring EVERYTHING was even... level... centered.. you name it..

The motor mounts are fabbed, but ran into a slight problem with the steering shaft.. it intersects the driver mount .... so I channeled it... its not done yet, but will be tomorrow.. the mount.. not the install..

I used the 360 mounts with the center of the 4 slots cut away, 1/4" plate with caddy pattern welded to the top of it.. then had to space it out 3/16" on each side off the framerails... not too bad...

I would like to thank Pete ( CrazyJeepman) for all the help and assistance he had provided me on this along the way...

I was able to retain the heater core with no mods.. this is due to the 3" bodylift... WHEW!!!

The HB unit clears with ease....



Well.. I overcame the steering issues.. DONE!!!

Here are some pics of the modified mount and after install, betore paint. I used 1/4" thick tubing and channeled the mount. PERFECT FIT!!







And more progress on the cleanup... its a dark photo.. but you can get the idea...

before with the AMC 360 out...FOR GOOD


after

looks good i like the idea on the drivers mount did you consider makeing a bolt on top for it to help stegthen it?

yeah... I have thought about it...I dont think its needed due to the gussetts I have on the the underside, but better to be safe than sorry...

that is a sweet jeep!!!! i love that body style. i don't know about those 44s though in some tough terrain. especially with that new engine. he he he... that thing looks bad *** though. nice work!
