I only need to (roughly in order): Build a floor and mounts for said floor, buy and cut body skins, and weld on a bunch of mounting tabs for them, finish the front end of my chassis (still one or two tubes to bend up), route my coolant hoses (radiator is behind my seats and the coolant will go through tube for most of the way), mount limiting straps, completely strip the rig down to the bare chassis and do all the welding (everything is tacked together now), paint the chassis skins and hood (the hood is going to take a bit of body work, too), install gears and lockers, reinstall the drivetrain and suspension and axles and fuel cell and radiato and seats and everything, figure out my ram assist (this one prolly should go up there a ways), do all the wiring, including gauges and switches and whatnot, run fuel lines, build and install driveshafts, build a new beadlock, um, prolly a bunch more stuff.

Arg.... I'm kindof glad this happened to me now. Somehow, TPS broke at the connector, so got one from the junkyard, I hope its good, but right now I'm having a lot of issues with it. Ajusting and whatnot. Also I went up farmington canyon and blew a heater hose, finally got that all fixed so now all I have to do is get my motor running again...

Reassemble the engine with the new timing chain (hope no valves are bent), finish boxing frame at the steering box, build new rear bumper, and maybe build some rocker slides.
