If only I could give the previous owner a big -O- hug

I know Im not the only one, but I wish the PO of my truck was just in "reach out and touch someone" distance.

My truck has the worst dash stereo hack job Ive ever seen (I thought about starting a post so we could all compare). And I swear there is enough cut up wires for a few stereos under my dash. But most of us have to deal with that.
I bought it as a SWB only to find out it was originally a step side. Not that big of a deal.
I have leafs instead of springs... but the PO made it that way for some unknown reason, and Im starting to get a distinct feeling the rear end is out of something completely different.
Was doing some measuring for a flip kit and my axle tubes wont fit between the leafs and the frame, so no choice but to notch the frame which I haven't heard of anyone else having to do that.

Also noticed I had a little leak that was probably coming from the gasket on my master brake cylinder. Pop the cap... The front pocket is about half full and the rear pocket is completely empty. I drove this thing 3 hours to get it home with my 8 year old son.

I know.. I know But I needed to vent
