Lucky!

What was that plate behind the steering box?

[Mixbreed]

The old guy that had the truck before me decided to put a plow..  i took all that out

Poxy painted all parts as they are put back together, updated to a gear to gear case, and got a 8" BDS suspension lift from http://www.jansam.ca/

Thanks,   yeah i will look at your progress also,  i started this about 6 weeks ago... I'm going to start working on the body soon..

I have a 350 vortec that i have to get the heads machined to have bigger springs put into... so i can run a bigger cam.
