i'm doing the 14 bolt conversion on the rear , the front disc brake conversion on the front, the power steering and putting hydro boost on it as well, i got it all off a 1987 1 ton truck that i bought for $600. there was a new p/s gear box put on , new tie rods , idler arm , pittman arm , centerlink , new booster hoses, a new p/s pump, new brakes up front and calipers , i scored big time getting that chassis. and i'll scrap the frame and get some money back. NICE.

I installed my sway bar today. I used the dropped mounts since the front of my truck is low. I ran into no issues on the installation. Everything went smooth just like discussed on the board. My bar is the 1 1/16' off of a 1984 c-10.

I don't get to work on my truck today as we have friends coming over, but I get to show it off and talk about it a little. I opened the door and remembered I got the 64 Utah plates for it. I figure since they're green and it's St. Patrick's Day, I'll post a picture.

Everyone be safe and smart out there today.
