Welcome to the board! Looks like a good one. My advice would be to get it running good, check all of the safety stuff and drive it for a while before committing to any major work. Too many people get a truck and immediately tear it to pieces, only to find out later they are in way over their head in time, money, and/or ability...

Just my 2¢ worth.
