None right now, I want to redo them. I just took a piece of flat steel and drilled 2 holes in it. Only has 2 bolts holding it up, but the hoses keep it from moving much.

I only used it because I had it laying around. A 2 row ATX radiator for a B2200 would be a bit easier to install. Cusser did this on his B, he lives in Arizona and uses his AC 10 months of the year.

from last weekend. Since MT is down for a while I will focus my build thread here:

Replaced the crankshaft seal and got rid of the last PAIR tubes. The timing belt looks good so I don't need to replace it. Oil leak has greatly slowed down. As of now I went a week and haven't needed to top the oil off yet.

I realized that I haven't posted pics with the camper shell on and the front ride height set to where I want it.

Well I haven't been here much since I moved, thought I would update. Moving out I had a bit of an accident, trashing my passenger fender, grille and bumper. So I put the funky grille back on. I redid the motor, new rings and rod bearings, and she runs a lot better now. I retrofitted my AC to run on Freeze 12, and the AC blows cold. And of course I do not have any pictures on my cell phone, but have many posted on my thread on MT.

Funny seeing how far along this has come since I first got it. 500 mile report, still losing oil, about 1/2 quart every 500, maybe less. The only seal I didn't replace was the rear main, whoops.
Also I've been thinking about lowering it again, not as low as it was when I first got it, but still lower than stock. Not sure yet.
Also thinking about ditching the shell, I misusing it as a truck.

thats to bad about the seal man, good thing its only an hour to drop the trans. if she sees mostly street use you mise well drop it abit, override airbags in the rear will keep all your capacity there, while looking sweet abit lower. Im not a fan of canopies either, sometimes i wouldnt mind one but i think i would use it maybe once a year lol.
