Didn't get much accomplished this weekend. Grabbed some degreaser and a power washer and went to town on the engine bay before fab work continues in the next few weeks.

Nothing too exciting to report back still selling some stock stuff off to fund more parts to purchase. Front Differential, Transmission, Transfer Case etc.
