    Also got a glimpse of the pressure plate from the throwout fork window. Holy :poo:. Rust. It's bad. Don't they make a boot for the fork? Also, I'm missing the lower blocking plate from the front of the bell housing that covers the engine side of the flywheel. Need to source that too.

    Got the off road H removed. I feel like this crossmember should have the bushings for the hooks in the pipe. But it doesn't. Now I'm trying to remember if that was the original crossmember or not. Also found a hole in the passenger floorboard. It's totalled. Time to throw it away. Or...

    I didn't know these things could fly?! So much room for activities. Time to pull the transmission. The IRS subframe makes an amazing lift point. All the room to do all the things. 24" clear to the bottom of the floor pan. Seen more rust than I'd like this evening. Might POR a few spots.

    But I'll know for sure I'm a few weeks. I was going to tear into it this weekend, but work has me unexpectedly out of town.

    Maybe. Nothing has been taken apart since before the salt water flood in 2009. That said, the flywheel only has about 5k miles on it. If that. Im just worried about corrosion since the disc feels like it's worn a lot with very little driving.

    Valeo clutch kit came today. Need to pick up a rear main and hopefully not a flywheel.

    I'm leaning that way too. The Cobra IRS even has the sensors on it and they popped up through the floor under the back seat through factory holes in the tub. My front hubs have tone rings. So all I really need is front sensors, some wire, and the under hood stuff.

    Ordered the Valeo clutch kit that lines up w/ the old King Cobra clutch. Should be here early next week. Hoping I don't need a flywheel. This one only has about 5k miles on it, but there was the issue of the salt water flood almost 15 years ago. So I don't know what it looks like. Also ordered a...

    Order of operations. Clutch and under hood stuff first. Probably a rear main while I'm in there. Once the transmission is bolted back up, I'll get to work on all the corner stuff and then fit the long tubes.

    Took it around the neighborhood today. Annoyed the :poo: out of the neighbors I'm sure. Wheel bearings are angry. Add it to the list. Parked in the larger garage bay. Ready for surgery.

    Been a while since I updated anything. Sadly there isn't much to update. But. I'm still here. Xterra is built. and essentially finished. Got divorced. So that's fun. But...that one change allows me to refocus some money on things. And this is the summer of Mustang. I'm tired of it just sitting...
