originaly our 66 cj5 had a wood spacer at the trans crossmember at that very location.

that is the shift pattern of the T98 in my Dad's M38. I would make sure reverse is over and up and not over and down. That's the only thing I can't recall clearly 100%.

It looks like bubba work on the crossmember, however my Jeep has/had wood spacers that were between the frame and crossmember that I believe were stock spacers. Your jeep probably had something there also that was replaced by bubba with what's currently there.

Also, the T98 should be a 4 speed trans, right?

So my shift pattern should look like:

Anyone here are familiar with a T98?

Look like I have extra spacer on the cross member from the tranny and I wonder if they were added because of the T98 or if it is just a Bubba stuff?

A short update,

The engine is now in the garage. I will dismantle both diff tomorrow and trow away the frame.

That's very interesting. Mine has a T-90 as did most of them I believe. I've only seen evidence of one other diesel CJ with a T98.

I have a T98 transmission with a DANA transfert case.

I was expecting a T86 with a spicer transfert case.

Pics will follow later

That's a big patch.

I choose to go with JB Weld for now.


Yes. Very big patch indeed. Not sure who did it but it would not have been my repair method had I had the jeep at the time it went "bang!" If I ever pull the engine for rebuild, I will likely take the block to a professional welder to have it repaired correctly.

Be sure to let us know how the JB Weld worked.
It's always promoted as the miracle cure for all things broken.
I'd like to see it actually do some of the heavy duty repair it claims to do.

My block is actually broken and patched. Probably a big chunk missing under the patch. It's the opposite side of the block from the other perkins we've seen with a windowed block from #3. I've seen guys stitch powerstroke blocks, It should work for your perkins also.

Interesting. I sended them an e-mail requesting more information about it. They will be able to see my vids and should reply with a proposition I guess. I'll let you know. Thank Bob.


Modified;
I already got an answer from locknstich.

"It looks like it is into the oil. You need to robe the oil pan and find pit where the crack comes through to the inside. It can be easily stitched but metal shavings cannot be allowed inside the crankcase. It is possible you may find the crack extends into a main bearing saddle or some where that could explain the cause of the crack. "

Personally I would not try to weld that block unless it was an expert welder with lots of experience welding engine blocks. To me it is the perfect candidate for stitching. http://www.locknstitch.com/
You could try epoxy but I think it would be a temporary repair. Another thought is modern block sealer that would be added to the coolant. They have come a long way since the good old days.
