    Body lift is done!...aside from bumper brackets, because i don't have any. :( I got the clutch, showed up around 430. Got the trans in....almost done just have to put the driveshafts in, and she's kinda ready to roll! Woulda been done tonight, but i started getting eaten by mosquitos. :( Should have some pics tomoro hopefully.

    a little bit of an update....was gonna go sas, but opted not to. My ttb has held up rather well and id rather not fallow the crowd with an sas. I just ordered a set of pivot brackets, So i can get started on my d44 ttb, f150 8.8 rear. Before i get started im rebuilding the axles (in progress)! Might go with an eaton m90 also....since i scored one at the junkyard for dirt cheap.

    Got the bumper moved up to accomidate the BL. Starting messing around with paint, to make a decision on what color to paint the truck...finally lol Well i made my decision, Its a really nice red...called sunrise red. Now that the trial run is done, will be finishing painting the truck within the next week or so as long as the weather stays nice. THIS PAINT IS SO SHINY>>>I LOVE IT!!!!
