    Moving to Canada... soooo

    Okay,

    So my wife got orders to North Bay Canada. Now my CJ is not going to make a 2000 mile drive in one piece. I'm thinking of rebuilding/replacing/fixing the following for the trip, please give me some input on this.

    Rebuild the TH400 Tranny
    Rebuild Quadra-Trac
    New Pinion Seals
    New U-Joints
    Change out Diff Fluid
    HEI Distributor
    New Wiring Harness
    Install a damn radio
    rebuild the carb

    Was going to check on the following:

    Pull the intake while rebuilding the carb and check the pushrods and lifters for abnormal wear and replace the lifters, pushrods, cam, and bearings if needed.

    Am I missing anything that anyone could think of? Only have 5 or so months to do this and I'm a bit nervous thats not enough time... but.. watchya gunna do.

    Thanks for any input anyone gives.

    Probably, but I don't have a vehicle that would be good for towing it. I figure I might as well do all this now, in a familiar place with people who could help me if needed (who live near by). Plus when I finally do my frame up resto.. I won't have to worry about most of this stuff.
