« on: December 08, 2012, 05:18:33 PM »
im being lazy. heres a link to the amca site

http://www.amcalberta.ca/projects/Keiths_fc170.html

had an early attemp at the show n shine a couple years ago. Well it didnt work so well, so some of the amc club offered to help me fix it up.

As it sits now there are now rear cab mounts and floor supports. I am running the original 226 super huricane motor with a 700 r4 auto into the original d18 with pto winch

I remember you showing up in that :D Good to see how its progressed. keep it up. Definately not something you see everyday!!!
I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

Not sure if your in the market for any nuts but I'll trade my left one for this unit.

 Gonna be sweet when done. I've been hoping to come across a stock crew cab but I'd have better luck winning the 6/49 I think. One of these will be a project of mine in due time. After I grow tired of my Willys pickup. Good luck with the build

stock crew cabs are called m677. came with a diesel and were only the military. start at 10000 for a project.
