I also got all my suspension pieces powdercoated "clear" after the process they seem to have a carmel kind of hue to them but I like it.

I also will be running a custom brake line setup that uses a mix of hard and soft line. I plumbed part of the hardline section on the backside of each beam. This is 3/16" stainless steel line.

That's awesome clear because your welds themselves are cooler than any powdercoat made!!

My steering linkage is made out of .375" (3/8") wall 4130 tubing. the ends are drilled and tapped for the rod ends. Each linkage piece has a left hand and right hand thread for easy adjustment.

I also got the links chrome plated. They are the only chrome/shiny thing on the whole truck and im super happy with it

here is the crossmember all bolted up. Excuse the mismatching hardware. I did not have 6 of the same bolts at the time.

On saturday and sunday I went through the whole front end and installed all new F911(aircraft grade 9) bolts and some grade 8. Everything is tightened up. All the spindle hardware is installed and the truck is ready to go.
