Holy time flies.

I have been really busy at work so haven't had a chance to get a ton done.
I have started a new front to back plan because I ended up jumping around and not finishing stuff.
I put together a new front bumper , installed the new winch Cheryl suprised me with a while ago, and installed the old procomp lights.
Next up is front shock hoops and installing the new 14" travel fox shocks.
Rich also ordered me up an RCI fuel cell so that will be in soon enough.

Also if anyone has a lead on a Chevy dana 60 please let me know.

Bent some hoops up yesterday and finally got a couple shocks in. Pretty happy with how they turned out but I definately learn things I would do different each time I build something.
I also tracked down a donor crewcab so the 60 and 14 bolt will go in next. Not sure whether to do a disk kit on the 14 bolt right away or just keep the drums to start? Definately going to swap in the hydroboost. I'm also going to swap in the th400 and the 205 it came with.

Picked up a fresh set of 40" KM2's from Craig on Tuesday and it reminded me I needed to put up some new shots. 14 bolt is in and Dana 60 is almost ready to go in. Started the main hoop for the cage and then ran out of tubing so that should hopefully come together in the next few weeks. TH400 and Art Carr shifter is ready to go in. Definitely have my heart set on some Method beadlocks so that is next on the to get list.

Finally got the 60 in and the old girl sittin on all fours again :D . So stoked to get this truck on the road I can't even explain it. TH400 and 205 are next to go in and then measure up some driveshafts and get those on order. Pretty stoked to bend up some more tube so bedcage and finishing the interior cage are next on the list.
