You have really brought this truck back from the ashes. Im really impressed. Especially since your doing all nearly every bit of the work yourself. Keep it up look forward to seeing everything completed.

Thanks for all the positive comments. I'm having a crappy day and they do cheer me up!

The rear sway bar is from Belltech...you should be able to get it from them or Summit Racing.

Re: "The Ayatollah of Rusty Hole'a 1987 SWB 6.0 4L80E

Thanks again guys.

ABC Muffler is the best in my opinion. They are great to deal with and I have taken several trucks there over the years. They have been in business for 40 years so that's a good sign!

The brake lines were made by a hydralic hose shop here in town. I do not know what company makes the bulk hose though, there were several colors available.
