i need to learn how to post pics. if you go to the links above there some photos of the glove compartment and dashboard. the truck has a Wilwood dual master cylinder arrangement. the reservoirs are mounted inside the glove compartment.

the pedal assembly and master cylinders are mounted behind the gauge cluster. Its a manual brake system that works great.

The IRS is out of a 2003 Ford Expedition. I used the center section, CV joints, brakes and knuckles. The rear axles are new, but shorter 5-inches per side than stock. The rear arms were built by a friend of mine. Its limited to 12-inches of usable travel. Any more than that and the CV's begin to bind up due to the axle plunge. There are other CV's out there that will allow for more travel but this is plenty for my application.

The firewall, bed, and a few other things have already been upgraded and he is currently putting an LT4 in it.
