dam that thing is sooooo clean.. is it a show truck or????
 
i would stay away from the rear shocktower mount thats aluminum i had one on my jato and any hard landing would break the mounts on the transmission.
Is there an aluminum or alloy transmission case to replace the one on the Jato? I recently picked up a project Jato on the cheap, noticed the case shock. Tower mounting screw holes stripped and or busted off

There used to be but good luck finding one these days.
 
So my teardown is done, now to do the nasty cleaning. Lol
Can anyone suggest and or recommend any needed upgrades that won't break the bank since I have it torndown this far? I did open the engine since I pulled it. Good thing I did. Found lots of surface Corrosion and the inside bearing frozen to the shaft and not spinning. Thankfully it doesn't look like it spun inside the bearing race area. Definitely going to replace them.
