Made alittle progress today. Kinda feels good to get back to turning wrenches after all these months. Matt brought me some stock shackles by today and we put those in right quick. Deff lowered the truck an 1"-1.5" in the front and helped my pinion angle a ton. Back before Marlin, Allpro, or Trail Gear.....Downey was about the only aftermarket toy guys in the country. So around 96-97 we put these huge shackles in the front and they acted like a big crow bar on that front pinion. I pulled the Back To The Future Smittybilt single tube roll bar out the bed and almost shed a tear. Talk about a hear today gone tomorrow product. Also got the stock seats pulled and the old vinyl floor removed. Should be able to get the PRP's and harnesses mounted in the mourning work pending.

I hope to have my fuel cell back in a few days, I have a local fab shop doing me something similar to this except with aluminum. I could have done something with steel but my finished product would have turned out near as nice and I'm really trying to do this rig once and right the first time.

Scooped up this 4xinnovations cage locally. I've been debating between exo or in cab cage. I think the in cab will be alittle cleaner look and keep some of the weight off. I have an idea or 2 to protect the cab in key places but dents will happen I'm sure.
