Lol!!! I feel your pain! I broke all but one on the driver side. The plastic is all chewed from sliding the clips on. How's it coming?

If you've gotten sick of this project PM me your bottom dollar on the truck as a roller.

Alright finally uploaded some pics. I've made a little progress. Aside from the pics below, I've got all the 4-link/drag bar/locator bars painted. I've also got the frame stripped of that nasty grease and ready for paint. I should have the new water tank and I/C here sometime next week so I'll start fabbing up mounts for that stuff. Once I get the truck cleaned up underneath and under the hood I'll be ready to start putting it back together. I'm thinking it'll go back together pretty quick besides making the new brake lines, fabing up the i/c mount and cold piping.

Heres the dash all finished up. I'm very pleased with how the switch panel turned out.

That rear looks so nice I just wish you would put it on a shelf and put a 9 under the truck.

I really hope for you and the sake of "don't fix it if it ain't broke" the axle gets you some miles and passes but I would be chewing my nails off if I were you.

I really aspire to someday be proud to show picks of my truck and consider them near the level your truck is at of fit, finish, and quality.

P.S. That is allot of switches for under-truck neon!

Until you get your new engine built, do you care if I borrow the F2 and break it in for you? lol

Damn looks really good! It looks like the cage isn't in the way at all.
