Been buying more parts. Have 4 Slam RE-7 bags, chrome 5-gallon tank, 2" blocks with longer U-joints, rear shock relocators, one window regulator, chrome tilt column, chrome rear sport bumper, cab supports, the panels to shave the door handles, stake pockets, and gas cap.

Gas cap has been shaved already. The patch by infanti designs fits perfect with no work required..just tack it in, weld it up, and sand it smooth....

The guy helping me, Jason, is finishing up expanding his garage. As soon as it's done and the floor is epoxy'd, I will be going over to pull off the doors, hood, bed, and front clip. I'll be painting the frame, doing the cab supports, and getting it all prepped for paint. While the bed and front clip are off I'm going to install the airbags, drop spindles, etc. The engine/tranny will be pulled to get cleaned up and painted and then they'll be dressed up before being re-installed.
