January 12, 201511 yr Author Alright alright i guess so haha, git r done? Yep just slowly. I bought a rebuilt motorcraft distributor for it the other day just need the plug for the distributor now... Been working on this more. I have the engine and transmission pulled. The 5 speed d/r ready to go with the adapter plate tapped and bolted on minus the linkage needed to be modified. 6 inch lift almost finished thanks to scubaroo84. Already have a ea82 fuel injected pump ready to go. Just need to part out the legacy now. I am going to unwrap the harness and get Prwa101 to help me strip it down. So this thing could be running and driving in 2 or 3 weeks.

February 8, 201511 yr Author Used a ea82 manual steering extension with only minor modification. Which can be done with a die grinder. The joint on the top needs more room for rotation so you grind down the part of it that hits until both sides have the same movement. I couldn't get the adjusting part to come off the linkage so i cut it and welded it. Which ended up not needing to happen if i grinded down the joint first.
