4.875 diffs, 34" tires, stock tcase just wouldnt cut it. instead of buying el expensivo crawler gears i decided to to an el cheapo dual tcase fabbing...
after week of being lazy, i finally got it under the junk....
the crossmember and the additional tcase support
and got new slip yokes to fit...
april 21, 2007, finally got it out again to do some poser shots....
ran to the nearest muffler shop so i could hit the nearest hole before it gets dark...
...got the muffler done, and off to the hole...
and raced it the next day
and finished 16th out of the grid of 26, nor bad for a shakedown against huge land cruiser

Both builds are very impressive in both the fab work & detail as well as the rate of speed you're doing it all in. 
The tooling and precision for a 'back yard project' is admirable!
Definatley following both zook and buggy builds for some inspiration...
Wish I could fab/build even half as good as that

ditched my patrol diff swap...used a daa 44 instead (4.875:1)
here are images of the slow progress...
it looks like im going to move the front diff a little bit forward to clear the oilpan and be able to create enough room to lower my rig 4 inches
it will be running on 38" inch swampers...still hoping to hit the trail by early september
thanks

Read about this over on Pirate and ZK. Thanks for putting it up here too. One of the nicest full bodied zooks ever IMO. Well done on a great buildup dude and Im hanging to see how the buggy turns out too.
