You didn't specify that!

We also have plastic overfenders we want to add. The front fenders may require additional "clearance-ing" based on tire size.

You don't need the fan or oil cooler for the challenge.  Those can be taken off the list if time is critical.

In reply to wvumtnbkr :

The fan is "works" but I'd like to add a relay.  The fuse box, battery, headlight/fan connection, and relays will be within a foot of each other.  Not a big rewire.  Right now the trans sits with the trans cooler lines just cut 6 inches from the trans.  Adding a cooler will only take slightly longer than doing a loop on them and I'd rather have a cooler for a 4L60E.

Headlights procured in case needed. 

Just to prove Mr_Asa wrong I got them off a Ford. Pretty sure it was undeserving of them.

This sounds like it's not going to be much of a PLB (which is fine as well).

Yall are making great progress!

He looks like he's mounting that tire in the Biblical sense.
