Well this has happened since my last post... Ruff Stuff Specialties rear disk brake conversion. I also removed 2 leafs out of the rear packs and installed new U-bolts to level it out some. The jury is still out on if I need more lift to clear the tires, but if i do it'll be by 1" at most so I will probably do a 1" BL.

You're welcome.

Have you had a chance to drive around with the new rubber?

Fair enough. I know you have to be ready.

Well my Blue Heeler got hit by a truck back on Valentine's Day so my progress has come to a near complete stop with the vet bills to get him out back together. I did however swap the OBS mirrors onto the green cab to get rid of the empty holes from having a couple different mirrors on it. Plus they have so much more visibility. I've also been working to tear down the primered body to get the frame presentable and pull the trans and transfer case to rebuild. Still hoping to have it road ready by summer.
