Re: back from Hiatus... :)

Got the front suspension off. Deciding on what to do, refurbish stock or go with something else...? I still can't find that header bolt I dropped....
next, going to remove the old steering parts up front. Clean it up, and prep it for some chassis paint from the cab mounts forward. Guess I'll clean up these inner fenderwells and core support and throw some paint on them too.
I did order fuel system parts, line, fpr, fittings, filters and some other odds and ends. I'll get the new front steering parts when the painting is done in the engine bay.

I plan on using a mostly stock parts lowering mine, belltech 4/6 kit with porterbuilt 1" forward lower control arms.

I'm leaning towards just refurbish, save me a bunch of $.
