I know I know... I been gone a while. Just a whole lotta work hours and home projects.. I will try to be back on here more though.

Ok update...
The front sub swap is done. Well sort of. I notched the front cross member to allow the engine to set lower and avoid making new mounts. So as soon as the cross member is plated (boxed) back in it will be done. The engine is where it will be and bolts are in for now. Also found a BW t-10 from a Falcon. Side shifting close gears instead of granny 1st. That too is in and waiting for drive shaft measurements.
Next project will be a 4 link air ride rear. This one to be exact. http://www.truckshop.com/product.php?pr ... 340&page=1

Then a set of bags in the brand X front control arms and wallah riding on air. I cant wait.

Then the whole thing will come back apart for paint and final build.

Pictures as soon as I can. Good to be back!!!!!

Gimmee email addresses? Truck shop offers 10 %discount over what Air ride list the stuff for. That was the best "package deal" I could find.
