Today my brakes and front coils arrived.
I removed the dash and the toe board, and the center floor trans tunnel. Not much holds the dash in. i was really surprised. Then I started drilling the spot welds that hold the fire wall in. My brother jumped in and did the LH side. Hopefully tomorrow I can get the old one out. There is a lot more work to replacing one of these than I originally thought. Go figure, right?
Here's a picture of the mods made to the X member to get the TH400 in there years ago....
I think I may shit can this wire harness too. Can anyone recommend a good reasonable price one? I see them advertised in street rodder and other mags for under $200. Anyone ever use any of them?Last edited by 40FordDeluxe; 04-03-2013 at 12:55 PM.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
