My OM617 Build
larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?
My DD is a gas Ranger, stickshift 2wd. It's awesome. 25mpg, does 65, had enough power to dolly an equal sized truck, nobody looks at it twice, and parts are laughably cheap. So the truck part is covered.
I've got a DJ5 frame/axles, a CJ5 body, SM465 with NP205 bolted to it, and my 617 in a crate. I'm finalizing my homebrew adapter, but progress is slow because I'm living in an apartment right now and the heep is at a buddy's house, out back in the woods. I can't have a project car on site (they will tow anything that looks dead) so things are still on hold.
Once I get the adapter finished up I'm hoping to weld up motor mounts and start slapping stuff together. It's going to be ungodly heavy but that's okay. ~1,000lbs wet for the engine/trans/TC. I want it to be a fun runaround vehicle that can jump a jersey wall if traffic gets bad
