I didn't get a final picture of the paint yesterday but it looks good!. im headed away on wed for the holiday weekend, but im going to try and get the coil overs in the truck before I leave, one of the guys is going to do the rear main seal for me while im gone, the soon as I get back, motor is going in. Going to be some serious work done next week. all goes well hope to have this thing started up in the next 2 weeks.

Why didn't they spray the inside of the frame

Lord knows I've been over a week taking the **** undercoat of the inner frame rails

Coilovers installed
Pull the oil pan and put in the drain bung for the LP turbo

last night the coilovers went on the frame. Very happy with these, and very happy with Trevor's brackets fitment was great, and installation was not bad at all.

put the alternator back together last night, didn't have much time, but today, the oi lpan drain for the LP turbo is getting welded in, the oil pan, and motor mounts will get painted, and motor, trans, and transfer case should be in the frame tomorrow.

Then il finish up my fuel system, while waiting for 2 remaining items.
