Just got my 4-link today! Now all I need is a rear-end. Hopefully I can post some pics soon.

Sorry its taken a little while to respond. but, The fittings the the air brake lines are all 1/2" brass. a Short nip, a 90 and another nip on each side connected to the air brake lines. I still havent gotten a chance to take a pic of the hole. The soft lines were made by a hydro line place locally. Not cheap but I hope they will work out well. The weld in bungs came from a plumbing supplier, they are actually for sprinkler systems.

I got some more work done, just check my build thread.

I also have a question for the low people on here. What are you doing with the rear driveshaft? I dont have enough movement in the u-joint for it to be actually connected. Im thinking that I need to raise the tranny up some, or get a 2-piece shaft or one with a CV joint like my jeep. What do you guys think?

and pic of the engine in for your pleasure...

Looks awesome, and that motor/ tranny looks amazing, I forgot about how clean they are initially, it's been so long on my truck...
