Finally a update about some real progress!

I'm still just a little ways out, but I'm a bunch closer, I have the parts finally, I still have to have the hoses made and I'm waiting on the stamp and ink for the handle.

They came out nice, the anodizing looks good and they fit the engine bracket well.

The top fitting will probably have to be machined where the stick goes in, to adjust for the hose length variation, that still has to be determined, I'll know exactly when I get 60 hoses in hand.

I threw in the logo, MBS or "Mike's Build Shop", I actually started a company, it was the logical thing to do, I can order stuff at better pricing, as well as other benefits, plus branding and image goes a long way vs a no name blank part.

Next week things should really start to move along, I hope everybody still has interest and haven't given up, it sure has been a painfully long process. View attachment 192150 View attachment 192151 View attachment 192155 View attachment 192156
I hope i am quick enough to snag one of these. Seriously awesome stuff

I will be buying one when the supply catches up with the pre-sold units.
I have the B&M, but his look so much better in quality and fitment, rather than the generic B&M, and the measurements are made for the Rangers trans fluid levels.
Down the road, I'll probably have a B&M up for sale.....:thumbsup:
Just goes to show you..."When someone builds a better mousetrap........."

I will be getting one down the road. I didn't want to put the squeeze on someone really feeling the need to have one
For various reasons, not driving the truck as much, not towing at the present time etc. My experiment is going to be installing it on a transmission that has never been checked & check it for the first time. ? By the way Mike Great job & I like the pun (long process)

This should be put in the Ford performance parts catalog. Can't wait to get one.
NO !!!
If he has it put in the Ford Catalog somehow, he will sell billions, and he will become so rich that the manufacturing will go from his garage, and be outsourced to Won Hung Lo in the mountain area of some overseas country.
The stainless steel braded lines will be made of bamboo, the dipstick will be made from cast off Dr.Pepper cans, and the threaded connectors will come from drilled out old spark plugs.
