I have that stuff on page 8 but could make a seperate post if you want. Maybe more people looking for help would see it if I did that.

Unfortunately not. I am still waiting on my install kit for the bear claw latches (that has been a customer service nightmare). Also, I have been working a side project for someone so I haven't had time to work on the truck. Soon though....

Not yet, too many projects around the house. My bearclaw latch install kit is supposed to ship this week and when I get it I will get it put in and get some photos up.

very nice work man, do you plan on shavin the handles and making then pop or leave the stock door handle and reconfigure the release linkage...I only ask cause I did that to one of my old trucks and it blows ppl's minds when you open the door with a stock handle and its actually a suicide. Also on a side note..you should fill in the holes on the inner side of the door.. it flexes less when you do so and then theres less stress on the hinges as well.

keep up the good work though...looks sweet
