Hmmmm...

Agreed that the front axle is too light weight.

Also, I thought the winch pto was driven off the tranny. Instead it's driven from the xfer case... (I should have actually checked that)

Tranny does have pto window on the passenger side that has the cover plate installed.

Bellhousing does not have ears like my early power wagon uses.

Very much a bummer as I'd hoped that most of the stuff would bolt in since Dodge used some of it in the later WM300 model (I thought)...

Positives would be that a decent body guy could fix the botched repairs fairly easily I would think.

With the exception of the front and driver and passenger windows, all other glass is good.

Truck is mostly complete and just needs a good cleaning.

Don't know what I'm going to do with it yet as I think the truck is pretty cool!

Damn! So much for updating easily updating the PW to a more "road friendly daily driver"...
