Glad to see you make it. I appreciate the walk around your truck.

I met a guy who installed a Cummins 3.3 diesel in a '86 4x4, fabricated the bellhousing and attached a ax15. he said he used everything from a 4 cyl on the front of the motor. I told him about the site so maybe he can get on and tell how he did it.

You can get a bonded title, it's going to cost me $100 to get mine.

speaking for the '00 seats I have, the whole setup is different, I'm looking at fabbing up the piece needed to mount them.

You can't that was the route I was going to take to install '00 seat from an XJ, the brackets are different. Pug you either have to get the brackets (welded to floorboard) from the donor or fab some up.

removed old bumper leaving the brackets attached to the truck. 15mm socket and wrench. Image Not Found Switched the brackets on the S10 bumper. there are four bolts, two are accessible from the bottom of the bumper 3/4 socket, Image Not Found the other two you have to remove the plastic cap, I started on the end and slowly pried with a screwdriver Image Not Found remove cap and expose the other bolts, 3/4. Image Not Found I switched the brackets loosely tightened, "C" facing towards the center, Image Not Found to see where I needed to cut the S10 brackets, removed the brackets and measured approximately 5 1/8 from the edge Image Not Found reinstalled the brackets, loosely tighten bolts, and placed the bumper on the truck bumper brackets for mock up and alignment Image Not Found Image Not Found haven't decided if I going to weld the "new" brackets to the "old" or bolt them. Later I will check to see if I can drill holes for the upper bolts in the "old" bracket in case of removal later on. Image Not Found

still looking for a Colorado rear bumper, picked up a '98 S10 bumper for 50.00. Turned it around so I can get the motor out. Removed the front bumper, breaking all four of the clips. Started disconnecting the wiring from the motor and draining fluids.

Added to prayer list and hopes she continues to get better.

I'm just north of shelbyluv

I use aircraft stripper on wheels, chrome & polished, to strip the clearcoat and paint before coating.

Done

---small update--- started removing the windshield trim pins, all but removed the engine wiring harness (PO really hacked the hell out of the harness), removed the header panel, pass fender. moving slowly, honey do's keep getting in the way. More later.

shelbyluvv - I appreciate the parts, did you get the axle off loaded Drahcir495 - I'll try to get it out of the garage this weekend, hopefully it will stop raining. working on acquiring the bumper and then try to do a write up jtdesigns - looking for the light bar, a little steep at the dealership, If I can't find it in the junkyard will probably buy the housing and go from there.

Removed the windshield trim, wipers, cowl to remove the windshield. I used a flat tip screwdriver on the passenger lower corner and pried up. I lifted the windshield up and pressed from the inside with my hand with no resistance, until i go to the driver side top and the windshield cracked. Image Not Found I know now why the carpet is screwed up. Image Not Found Scrapped the windshield frame Image Not Found I'll finish it when I get the dash out. removed back wall carpet, there are 2 clips on each side and 2 screws on the bottom. Image Not Found Image Not Found removed the rest of the passenger trim. the passenger door, '00, had been put on earlier when I got a spurt to do something.
