Well starting Saturday I will be off work for a week for the sole purpose of working on Besty all day to get as much done as I can...first will be to tear apart the dashboard and re wire everything get the new ECU and TCU installed...after that will be to get the rear end lifted up...and last will be to get the engine in the car and possibly the transmission...hopefully I can get it all done

That actually turned out to be the wrong rack and pinion so I had to send it back and then I'm gonna have to order the right one

No I was planning to take a piece of metal and putting it where my manual 4x4 shifter was and installing the automatic 4x4 shifter in its place

Block off plate?Head back to the junkyard and get the block off plate from the car you got the harnness from. It should have the correct plate. Grab the gasket too!
Glad to see your making progress on this. Post up if you have questions. There are more than a few geniuses on here who are willing to help.

When I was moving to New Jersey from California I stayed in Rifle for the night! We drove 700 miles that day from Barstow ca to rifle...never again with 2 kids that was way to far...but that is a really nice townIf there was good work I would love to stay. I grew up in salt lake went to moab all the time. There and st George, lake Powell man I love the Rockies and Wasatch front and that south desert is just a nice topper. We may move to rifle. All depends on what I can find. May get my cdl again and drive truck for the oil companies Denver just keeps reminding me why we had to go. Rent is disgusting! Lol.

If you already have your Dana 44 that's half the battle right there...your rig would be so much better off with a SAS especially if you have the know how to do it...I would go that route if I was you

Probably just because you have new belts...there are 3 different tensioners and when the belts are loose it doesn't sound pretty...2 of them are on the top and the power steering is on the bottom should be 12mm just make sure they are tight

So spent 4 hrs yesterday at the junkyard pulling this dash harness...all I need is the trans wiring and 4x4 switch wiring but it's all intertwined soooo it looks like I'm probably replacing mine which I didn't want to do...I can't keep my manual shifter lever so I'm gonna install a metal plate where the 4x4 shifter lever used to be in insert the new switch like so...
Got the new harness labeled today...a few plugs I don't remember but not anything important...headed back to the junkyard next weekend to pull the wires that run from the end of this one to the connectors under the car to the trans and I will have all new wiring harnesses in my possession...ain't nothing like completely rewiring a whole car pretty much

Check Craigslist for junk pathfinders around your area that's how I scored my engine and transmission for $500...guy just didn't need it he was rebuilding the rear end of another pathy and didn't need anything off the frontMines got 170k with a rear main leak now plus its got about 500 dollars worth of sensors that need to be replaced
