The belt runs a hydro pump for the front diff oil. And I already plan on staging a belt. Drive shaft just need to be removed on the diff end to get it on.

So you're saying this thing is basically a trophy truck in disguise? :smokin:

Removed the rear hydro valve block and lines on the “passenger side”
Image

Took one of the seats from the back of my ranger as I had removed them awhile ago. Aside from having to build some oddball mounts should work mint
Image

Pulled the factory mount off and did some mock up
Image

Actually fits decent can see the foot stop up front

Cleaned up some more grime and opened up the front diff. Oil is junk, but all looks good for the most part. Brake bands in fair shape should be good for a bit. Will clean it up and drain the lines and cooler and splash in some new oil.
Image

Can see the planetaries, brake bands and drums. That’s all it uses for steering and braking. R/P is just a D44.

I didn't realize they made them for those little baby motors. It should work good though, based on how well the V8 version works.

Holley just released it a few months ago. I hope it works well, will save me alot of time jetting and tuning for altitude with a carb. like you said if it works as well as the other setups should be mint, as I feel they have the systems pretty much dialed now

Finally started making sparks on this thing. Removed the heater and valve block to clean them up and sprayed some bedliner under them.

Beefed up the ram mount and added another hole for the pin for the winch mount I plan to build

Whipped up the foot stops and tied them into the side to help beef up the area where I plan to mount the roof rack and running board step
Image

Other side has the cables for the hydro lines so had to go around them

HMF stencils for the win
