Heres a update I finished up the engine bay and got the suspension on.
I bought a new posi and gears with the 5 lug Moser Axels.
I also got my new trans! I decided to go with a 4L60E SS model from monster transmission instead of the 700r4.
I got some new wheels as well and got the rear suspension back in 4"hd springs with 2" blocks.
Hopefully I'll be able to get her running in the next month or so. I still have lots to go with plumbing the brakes , cooling lines, and fuel lines.
