Thanks for the reply and Congratulations.

Beautiful truck AM, hate to hijack the thread but what size pic are you using and how do you get it that big, just posted some pics of my 83 and they are small, trying to get the hang of posting pics here

I am lovin' your truck. I would also like to suggest a billet grille of some sort to compliment all of the new chrome. The old grey plastic has gotta go!

I have my grille listed in the sig if you are interested in that type.

Tha looks really hot. I am waiting for my drop spindles and rear drop kit to come today Fedex. Using 2.5" spindles up front and maybe cut a coil on my stock springs for now.Doing the 4" drop in back. We'll see how that looks.

As requested, here are some close-ups of my grille:

a side view

opposing direction showing straight lines

black painted mounting bracket attaches to stock radiator mount

this is difficult to see from the pic, but there is a rod which remotely opens the hood latch

here is the top of the rod at the connection

here is the mid-point stiffener
