Next, whip out the anti-seize. WARNING, this stuff is NASTY!!! Loctite part number 76764. The good part about this stuff is it doesn't come off. The bad part about this stuff is it doesn't come off! Thomas calls it "Never-Leaves." Don't get this stuff anywhere near your wife's clothes or you will have to make yourself a new bed in the garage (at least it is next to your cool car).

As the drive shaft safety loop is billet aluminum, you will need to anti-seize the bolts before you put them in--unless you NEVER want to take them out again.

You will need a 3/8 hex wrench (allen wrench) to tighten up the bolts. Now, from this angle, you can see the space in between the frame and the drive shaft safety look where we will run the ebrake cables.

TRANSMISSION INSTALLATION:
Gents, here are a few things you need to make sure of to finish up your transmission installation.
Pull this plug out of your transmission! If you forget, you will have a GIGABYTE of tranny oil on your floor. This plug is for the installation of the mechanical speedo cable. But, since we do not use the mechanical speedo (we have the cool new electronic gauges) we will need to put a more permanent plug in this hole.

Here is a picture of a cool little billet plug we make--complete with an o-ring so it no leaky, leaky. (Remember to oil the o-ring so it slips in and doesn't get cut on the way in.) If you cut the o-ring, you will have leaky, leaky.

Just take the plug and stick it in the hole. Take the big fender washer we supply you with, along with the 1/4-20 x 1/2 bolt and bolt the baby down so it doesn't fall out at some unopportune moment. (Like when a tech inspector is watching!)

This is where our speedo "plugs in."
