And so it begins,,,,,, 5-speed Duster swap!
I realized today that I forgot to make a hole for the speedometer cable. The Tremec speedo hole ended up right in the middle of the torsion bar crossmember. So I ended up grinding some paint off and cutting a hole. After another trial fit, it looks like it should work just fine. I plan on taking some rubber hose and putting it around the cable where it passes through the trans crossmember, so it won’t rub through. I also picked up some grade 8 bolts, for when the transmission goes in for the final time!
