So I haven't updated this thing in a coon's age, so I figured it was time I posted up some new pics.
I finally got this wheel this thing out in TN and it did Windrock Park and Royal Blue offroad park. The trip did not come without prior drama though. Right before I took off, I had a trans fluid seep. I kept thinking it was a T case seal issue and pulled the case and replaced the seals multiple times. The last time I did, I got a wild idea to blow into the vent hose to see if it was clogged and maybe pushing fluid through the seals, but I found a cracked case....... yay, not!!!
I found this 3 days before I was set to leave for Tennessee and I was in a bit of a panic. Luckily, I found a shop with another 207 locally and they swapped all my guts and SYE, including the price of the new case, for $200. I thought that was a good deal. Anyway, I get one of my buddies to help me and we slap this thing back in and off I go. Mind you, this whole rig is still untested, since I haven't wheeled it after the powertrain and drivetrain swaps.
Then I got to adding a wideband and finalizing the interior for the trip. Its still not "done", but I doubt it ever will be.
After it was done and got it ready to put it on the trailer, I had to snap a pic.
Off I go...
Then we started the whole weekend with me being a dumbass, picking a poor line, not having hydro steering and almost rolling this bitch...

After that, I decided to make less poor life choices and we continued wheeling.
Then while trying this:
This happened:
No big deal... Just pull it off and run off the Y pipe. It sounded awesome!
