I didn't quite make it to where I wanted but I'm close. Truck has brakes and it has a seat and the gear shifter linkage is almost done. Had a few minor part setbacks so didn't make it all the way to where I wanted to be tonight but should be tomorrow.

Got the 60/40 seat out of the donor truck and put the drivers side in to pump the brakes after we let it gravity fill. Then we bleed them good and we have brakes. Gonna take the seat this weekend and give it a good bath and shampoo to get all the grim off. Clean the seat belts up good and install.
Blower wheel came in and will be installed tomorrow along with the water pump that finally showed up.

It sucks not being able to hear! LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB! After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
