hey rick, nice build so far man like it! love the wheels looking good. good luck with the move man. i noticed something in your earlier pages of this build. now i may be wrong, but it looks like you have the front tubular crossmember in the wrong spot. what u have to do is drill out the oem rivets holding the rad support mounts and bolt the crossmember through those four holes on each side. thats what i did on mine. maybe u just threw it in the frame earlier for mock up sake not sure. just trying to help.. i will keep my eye on this sweet build

Well, small update on the progress of the truck, big update on life. The body works been moving along slow, but the funds really aren't there for it, so it's ok that it's going at slower pace.

The big update is that we found out the first week of August that my wife got the job out in Ohio! So we are moving out to Columbus, OH, the first week of October. We are actually in the process of buying our first house, so we're putting everything towards that right now. My truck will stay in Maine until next spring and then we'll tow it out to Ohio. I'm going to have to find a body shop in the Columbus area, so if anyone has any recommendations, it would be greatly appreciated!

Hey Rick,

Congrats to your wife on getting the new job and the new house. Hope the move goes smoothly! Totally selfish of me, but I was literally telling my wife this morning that I wish I knew someone in Columbus who could pick something up for me. I may have to ask a favor of you if you are willing. I'll shoot you a PM soon.

Jeremy
