I painted from the notch back because that part is done now. I bent some straps and welded in a cross bar for my fuel cell. I mounted both my tanks and put the compressor under the cab. I tefloned all my fittings and got them in place. All I got left to do as far as plumbing goes is run the lines and wire the valves. After I find a color to paint the inside of my truck I can start putting the front end back together... And I also included a picture of my new wheel/tire combo! I sold the 20"S and picked up some wheels and had them powdercoated. Then I found some brand new skiny whites for 140 and some brand new hubcaps for 80. I think the set up looks *****in!!! I've got a brand new complete chrome molding set and Im going to eventually go with the factory 2 tone turquoise and ivory. What do you guys think?

Oh ya I forgot to say that in front of the notch is not finished... I still have to remove the links and rearend so I can clean them up and paint them. THen I have to weld in some gussets on the bag brackets as well and brackets to the front link mount. Lastly I have to bend/cut/make room for my driveshaft to clear the back of the cab...
