Thanks guys, I can't wait myself. I'm looking to have it done before the end of June. Should be plenty doable.

Mattman, did you get tires yet? I know your also working on a budget. These tires are fantastic and much much cheaper than youl find any 37". baja's are also one of the best tires out there. if your interested in tires this size let me know. I paid $595 for 4 that are around 95% tread

new 1410 yokes. If your looking for yokes, you should seriously consider the Yukon yokes. there a strap style but the yoke covers more than half of the joint and the strap bears no load. also the bolts are twice as long with the threaded portion down into the meat of the yoke.

dana spicer 1410 strap in the back and bolt on the left, yukon strap in the front and bolt on the right.

Nice truck! To bad you cant keep the stock paint, don't see many like yours. I am sure the final product will look pretty killer though.
