just got the call from West Texas Offroad, steering box & ram assist being shipped today. 2 weeks, this makes the 3rd time they have worked on one for me and this one took the longest, still not bad.

Looking at weekend of May 5th, not 100% sure yet.
List of things to do next:

Adjust Duff arms and track bar

Swap out steering box and add ram assist, adjust steering links

Swap transmission & transfer case(s), need to measure for drive shafts

Swap radiators & replace carburator, new fuel line

Add brake booster and new brake lines

Repair body mount on right front

Was going to patch floor pans but notice Tom's has smooth replacements at a cheaper price, may replace.

Test fit and cut BC 1/4's

Work on bumper mounting, pull them in a little closer to the body

Need to pull 9" 3rd member and swap mini spool for full spool.

Test fit Mercury Capri seats, hopefully they will work.

Spoke to Gordon about the cage, don't really want it in the way until ready for it, looks like we can make that work for the next work weekend after this one.

Anybody heard from Barry (Bronco717274) lately? Haven't been on much myself but notice it's been 2 months since he visited. I sure hope he and his family are OK.
