pretty much finished the front end kit and paint stuff, gonna drop the new motor in sometime this week. i put on the psc kit with upper/lower balljoints, upper/lower poly graphite control arm bushings, inner/outer tie rods, and idler arm. also put on a new gear box and gonna put on a new pump. so hopefully it will drive like new.

here is the only before pic i took and its not too good of a pic but everything had about a 1/4 inch of grime on it

Damn that looks great, I just did the same thing Saturday in the shop for 4 hrs, and I don't think mine looks that good

Ohhhh well, they were also painting a damn old tractor next to me, I think I inhaled too many paint fumes, yep thats my story and I am sticking to it
