Updated pictures.....
     High-temperature ceramic coating on the catalytic converter heat shield.  Everthing is bolted to the frame using zinc plated Grade-8 hardware, except the front Cool-Ride kit. Waiting to be installed (Still waiting on the UPS man) is the following:   Front and rear disc brake upgrades from Stainless Steel Brakes Corporation and Belltech 3" spindles. More mods. coming soon but they will remain a secret.....

That's the most beautiful frame I've ever laid my eyes on. Now that's what I call doing something right. I'm like Tim. Damn man.

Thanks, everyone.
I really appreciate the kind words. Especially, from you guys w/ much nicer trucks. If it wasn't for this forum, I wouldn't be nearly this involved in a build-up. I'm starting to see light at the end of the tunnel.....
