These are a couple of pics I took after getting it off the trailer and into the garage. I am still trying to figure out how to work within the threads. I am not very good with this so please excuse my delay in responding.

 

Just wanted to say I like the 16" Lokar shifter I purchased:

 

Other than just some more cab sanding, No real changes....

I did get this in the mail today though.

 

Your truck is awesome, i can't believe the condition it is in after sitting for that period of time! Great job on the re-build. What disk brake kit did are you using?

 

Thanks for the compliments!!!
Here is the brake kit I purchased:

Been stitching the floor pan on the past week:

 

more pics:

 

Here is the front shock setup:






This was pretty easy and seems like it will work well.

 

I didn't like how the shocks were at a funky angle. So, I added the bracket from the maverick. This looks really great to me:









I also did some por-15 painting as well. I painted the inner fenders apron and some of the inside cab:







Getting close to being able to put some paint on the cab and getting the motor going. I am so ready to do some driving!!!

 

Chris I have been following your build and I am enjoying watching you do a 1st class job on the old girl.
Keep up the good work !! And keep the photos coming !!

 

Got some work done the past 2 days:





The brackets went together great.... But after putting the grille on I had to add a 1" tube due to conflicts with the cover above the radiator.



Still doesn't look to bad.





Driver side view:

 

Decided to go with Eastwood:



Still a few weeks from spraying primer on. After doing research, I still need to purchase a few more items anyway...

 

Here is how I'm going to mount my rear shocks:





I ended up coming up with a design so I could use the same shocks on the front as well as the rear.

 

great job on the build chris. thanks for all the pics and details. i've been following along closely because i pick up my first 46 this weekend. i will be doing what your doing soon. i'm sure at some point i'll be picking your brain (if thats ok). when i get started i'll post pics too.
