Here are a few more pics of progress.

I put this pic in there to show the Chisholm 2in drop arms that I pulled off. The crusty rotor is from not driving the truck much since I've owned. Less that 8k in 15+ years of ownership, every mile was to a car show somewhere. It's now a driver(when finished).

This is a pic of the Chisholms (for sale).

This pic is cleaning up x-member, getting ready to do a driver quality, protective coat of paint.

Here is a pic of X-member. Note the missing saddles. That's what projects are all about. Figuring out how to fix past fupa's. The Chisholms require removal of saddles. I have the saddles, and I think I have a solution for the fix. They require a round head bolt of some sort for the forward saddles to index the x-shaft. I'm open for crafty ideas.

Here are the saddles.

I wanted to also give Performanceonline a thumbs up. They are fast on delivery. I placed an order on a Mon, and here on Fri, from Ca no less.

More updates soon to follow.
