    Decided to finally finish my skid plate. Made some good progress today. I should be able to finish it this week.

    Decided to finally do something about the huge hole in my floorboard.
    Mockup

    Getting started

    Next time I do sheet metal work I'm investing in a brake.



    I still need need to fill in some spots and I'm going to get some rubber material to close off the whole bottom part.

    Looks good. I like that it angles off the dash.

    Thanks. I like the look of center consoles and I don't normally see them used with a standard transmission so I figured it would be somewhat "different".

    I need to cut down the shifter and find a shifter boot that fits the opening.

    Picked up an old mc2100 off eBay. Rebuilt it last week and got it on and fired up today.

    Old vs new

    The Venturi assembly as a crack so it will be getting replaced.

    Sitting in place.

    Anyone have an idea what this extra linkage part is for? It is sitting just inside the throttle linkage.

    It spins about 90* freely .

    I took the jeep for a spin earlier and I'm happy with the new carb. The throttle response is great. I still need to tune it better. Right now it is idling high. Later I will do some of the mods to help it perform better.

    What did the carb come off of? That could be a clue. We have some trucks at work with hand throttles that have extra linkages.

    What kind of choke is on that carb? Looks electronic, is it tied to the high idle during choke? Like would that linkage keep the throttle blades from closing?

    I don't really know what it came off of. Carb code brought up a 73-74 ford truck.

    The choke is currently the auto heat kind but this choke isn't connected to this linkage.
    From what I can tell, it just effects the throttle.

    Sooo, this happened.



    Thanks to Karl for letting me barrow his receiver winch.
    I used my wife's xterra to get unstuck.
