Thanks Bro. On a side note, I found a guy local that is buying all of the International parts I am removing. Super excited that the international drive train will put life in another IH rig.

Transmission in Brutus, my Ram 2500. Replaced it with an upgraded unit at the cost of $8250 including labor.

It was nice to finally get some decent weather to work in. Pulled the real International axle at got the 14 bolt mocked up. I need to order new leaf spring brackets which will allow me to eliminate the 5" lift block that I am using to find ride height. But, here she is sitting on 37's all...

Welcome to the Crew!

Hey Joaquin! Thanks man. I am also stoked on it. I actually have a vision of it with a roof rack with my 9'6" performance epoxy stick and my canoe, traveling down the west coast hitting the breaks and maybe getting back down into Baja. Was born and raised in San Diego, and my father lived in...

I guess some e-bikes could be included, like the Suron or Segway. They are built more in line of a dirtbike. Even some of the fatbikes like a Trek Farley 5 e-bike would probably fit the bill. I just don't think every e-bike is built to withstand the terrain challenges of off asphalt exploration...

I don't know about "pretty" but "new" or "factory" is my goal. My instinct was to just spray everything black, But I want to be able to identify leaks early.

I agree, but I also feel like it needs to get much worse to light a fire under people to stop putting up with all of the government overreach.

Yup, there is a cool museum in town and a dig about 45 minutes away. You used to be able to pay to spend a day participating in un covering the bones. Not sure if that is still a thing. One last pic looking out onto the BLM land from my 10 acres.

I appreciate you being willing. Ended up not getting anything done. Had a guy come over that is going to be buying the old IH drive train so that kill a couple of hours. I will let you know when the next opportunity is .

I agree, I have a place just outside Thermopolis Wyoming. It sucks! besides the wind and snow in the winter, the 300+ sunshine days a year get so boring! And geez, my closest neighbor is like a quarter mile away and never comes over to see what all the noise is, maybe they don't like me? Oh and...

I may spray a ceramic engine clear over it. Like the NV4500 I had built, many of the NP transfer cases came from the factory with a similar red coating. Here is the new transmission. The case is a brand new unit, red from the factory.

Still available.

This is still available.

There's a chance that I can make the trip, but the International will not be ready. If it were summer I would load it on the Big Tex, but just not into the extra effort this time of year. I really want to get it to the Binder Bash next year. Even then it will get trailered but would love to...

Well just waiting on parts now...

Fortunately I have plenty of bench space in the garage. What yoke are you in search of? Slip yoke's are not the best option for off road. As I am sure you are aware of, they tend to dis-attach when flexed out. Have you thought about going to a fixed yoke with the slip in the shaft? Don't...

Just break in down into small bite sized pieces. - Lay harness out and separate engine bay, cabin, tail lights - Mount fuse box - Route Wires -Engine bay -interior -rear Start making easy connections, like tail lights. Blah blah blah, just don’t think “I gotta finish the...

Yeah, It was drivable when I got it but not reliable enough for long trips so made the hard decision to build it right the first time. Try to make progress each week.

Sure has, Too long! Thinking we need to have a Tri-Cities OB revival!
