Ordered parts this week

both front axle seals, a pair of lower ball joints, upgraded valve springs, and a roll pan. gotta plan a cave day with scott to get my ball joints/axles seals in...the ball joints are beginning to worry me.

im about 50% of my way to being ready to pull.

still need to order the redline box, and if the side job goes well at work, a set of rims and tires.

just wanted to give a big thanks to Travis for coming by and lending a hand for a few hours mounting my roll pan and fabbing some stuff up. i ended up working another 3-4 hours after he left tho even in the 30* temps with no heat.

pulling season is getting so close, i cant wait.

took me and my buddy doug about 6 hours to fab this up, will get mounted to the frame using (6) 1/2" grade 8 bolts, and its all structural heavy wall tubing and angle. the main piece where the weights hang is an I-beam that was cut in half. all pretty heavy stuff.

we painted it with some rust inhibiting paint and ill be able to mount it on the truck tomorrow.
