Re: My First

It has been a while since I made an update but better late than never. The kids have kept me busy with sports and work has been very busy lately so no much has been done. I decided to fit the bed today to see how everything lines up. It was a little tricky to get rigged into place by myself but I got it eventually.
The lines look pretty good but my rear end is not centered at all. I am going to get it up on jack stands and adjust the panhard bar to move it into the correct position.
I did have to clearance the bed floor to allow the rear end housing to rise up at full dump. I will build a tunnel after I get some other things done.
I am planning on putting the battery in the bed with the pumps and tank to help keep the engine bay clean.

If anyone has a link to some battery/air ride setup's mounted in the beds please let me know. I am also looking for some links on stock gauge cluster mods to accept aftermarket gauges.

Let me know what you all think.

Thanks

Thanks for the comment. As for the wheels I still have them. I am gathering everything up to sell when I am complete with my truck.

Thanks!

I had to get the bed on to see what I need to cut out or rework to allow the truck to lay out. I have a buddy going to wire the truck over the winter so hopefully by spring early summer I might have a running truck.
