Thanks for the tip. I found a disconnect at a local speed shop but I'm going to bookmark that site for the future.

The main things left are to pull the cage out & finish welding the spots we couldn't get to, re-spray some bedliner on the inside where we had to grind and weld when we changed directions with the tailgate, wiring, plumb the brakes, fab the steering ram and plumb the steering, and body work / paint.

The end is in sight but there's still a lot of work left to do.

George, Aaron, Carl, & Mike - Thanks for the compliments :beer: I need them to keep motivation.

Fawl Crawl is a goal to make, but the closer we get I don't know if we'll be done or not. I need to be done a week or 2 early to test run it locally so I don't haul it 4 hours for nothing.

We pulled the roll cage out in order to final weld it - talk about a major PITA! It's out though and should be final welded, primed, and painted before next weekend so we can re-install it when we have an extra hand in town visiting.
