Lock cylinder is no problem, I already have it out. I forgot about that with park. It's been a long time since I've driven an auto. I'll have to figure out how to lock it in place.

Will need to be custom-fitted, but it makes me "just that malenky bit poogly" to brake out the welding stuff. (don't know what I'm doing).

That looks a whole lot like the Warn I have, although mine is chrome and doesn't have tread plate on top, just smooth.

This is definitely looking homemade rather than from a production jig.

No, the forum's email system isn't good.  I usually include myself in the message and if it goes I'll get a message confirming that.

But I've responded to your email.

Well, the exhaust is going to be a little tricky. The y pipe is not fitting because of the zf crossmember.
