Went wheeling all over dixe and found out how far the suspension will flex , enough to bottom out the front driveshaft and break the t-case adapter . Got her hung up as well and had to use the warn zeon , (worked great) , broke the t-case after that in the rocks. Drove it home , (210 miles) , took some gear oil and stopping to tighten the bolts every 60 miles to get home.

For sure , Its already a turbo 400 , 205 , but with an advance adapter. Now its all factory married set up , (had one sitting in the shop). Moved crossmember forward , had to change driveshafts as well . Rebuilt the 400 , red alto clutches , 34 roller sprag and a continental converter , should be good for a while.
