I'm unemployed, so this is a "low-budget" build...so far I've spent less than $100.00 on this build up. 60's and a BB or Diesel are a little out of my price range, unless y'all are willing to donate something...  :D

Man warthog, I like the fit and finish effort you are putting into this thing. It really makes the rig look that much better.

I got nothin' but time, while I'm saving up for the next big part...I even ground down the casting marks on the t-case, so hopefully the mud will wash off easier.

I got the Transmission all cleaned up, wire-wheeled and painted today.  Bolted it up to the T-case.  Now, I just need to get a pan gasket, filter and fluid, plus a couple of trans lines...

I got the trans/t-case installed!  I raised it up and bolted it in for (hopefully) the last time before it hits the mud!



I also picked up my seat from a fellow bogger at Rizzo's bog on Saturday, so I threw that in and started figuring ride height and steering wheel clearance...



...and the reason that it's taking me so long to get my bogger done is those pesky robotic cats!  :P

After!




I got the puppy bolted in today!  The sbc slipped into the engine bay like a fat man into a hot bath...




It's in, bolted to the trans and frame-rails, just gotta hook up all the sheot to make it start, run cool and tell me what's going on inside!
