Been taking care of some loose ends lately.
I was able to use the stock explorer ps reservoir by removing some of the explorer bracket (hole saw using an un-needed bolt hole as a center) and moving the res. down.
Also, I removed the transmission cross member to notch it for the Art Carr shift cable. I'm using the same shifter that I used in Jessica's ride so I was familiar with what I needed to do, but considering my plan is to beat the you know what out of this one I decided to re-inforce the notch. A piece of 1-3/4 tube cut in half did just the trick. I tacked the tube in place and re-installed the cross-member to double check my measurments before I weld it in for good. All looks good so hopefully I'll take it back out and weld it tomorrow night.
