Nice numbers on the engine ... hey who makes the mounting brackets you used on the engine? Nevermind, I just zoomed in and saw KRC! COOL!

Keep us updated ... looks good!

Actually....The pulleys and power steering pump are from KRC, I made the mounting brackets and had them Anodized black.

Nice job on the accessory drive, the brackets came out nice. Everything tucked up nice and tight.

Todays progress....Got all the wildwood brakes mounted and flipped the upper control arms over and re-installed the ball joint so I could get the the 5 degrees positive caster that the suspension builder recommended. Also included a picture of the modified Transmission cross member for the 1" raised and 3/4" set back driveline.

Adjusted the front suspension today and set the Duster on the ground for the first time looks like it's about 1/2" low in the front and 1" high in the rear to get the desired stance.
