So Friday start work early so can finish early enough to get another motor from Zebra car parts was sunny when I started then half way through pissed down then sunny again for the actual removal.
Saturday cleaned up new motor a bit
Sunday pulled truck under deck / engine removal bay.

thought id time laps capture the removal of existing motor but phone when flat before actual removal ill be sure to get the re-install.

Put a coat of paint on rear axle assy.
And rebuilt modified Subaru calipers for playdoh.

would be a good time to consider ditching those awfully rigid rear trailing arms and making up a linked setup for the rear if you've got any room left with that highmount sitting in the back of the chassis rails

difflocks are good but so is keeping all the wheels on the ground

Yeah I would love to do that but with the mid mount winch already in there is no room for all the arms... Not really worried.... Maybe on my next truck....
