What accessories are you running on your motor and did you use the stock brackets?

Stock brackets with a remote reservoir power steering pump for the hydro-boost. No AC but Holley makes a bracket for the smaller aftermarket Sandon compressor. I may add AC later...but I planned to go soft top or just bikini top..

I hope to bring the truck home from the body guy (aka free storage place) this weekend. I still need to plumb brake and fuel lines. Finish wiring and fire it up. It will need a front drive shaft and the transfer case shifters installed as well. Once it running I'll work on custom bumpers and maybe a roll bar... (it sill has the small tires on the rear in these pictures)

One of the extras I picked up over the Christmas holiday was a billet dash bezel from Ringbrothers. I had covered a repop plastic dash bezel in Line-X but wasn't happy with the look. I will have the new one powder coated along with the glove box door. They will match and the texture will similar to the OE bezel in a wrinkle black powder coat. This will hold my Dakota Digital gauges.
