I will do a nice write up after I get to a point where I have a few days waiting for a few parts. Plus I will be taking tons of pics along the way, and give a more in-depth review of the swap then I have seen before.

Between my son, school, and my pending break down from this project. I want it back on the ground in 1 week. So I can start road testing, and see what else may need to be fixed.

Where I had a month or so to gather parts. I now have a weekend togather the major parts.

Wow, that's a solid looking truck. I like the seat upholstery and I will be changing my white dash bezel to the chrome one like you have at some point, it looks much nicer.

I just got a mother's ball two weeks ago and it's AWESOME!!! I can't believe the difference between metal polish and metal polish with a mother's ball, it's incredible.
