Glad to see your project comes to the end soon! I'm almost done as well, my build thread here

Can you give me more details on wiper linkage modification? You did explain cowl cuts etc but were you able to fit 2011+ linkage or had to modify?

Had to add this, where we picked up a truck bed for the rear fenders.

I should had at the time and wished that I would've, but my brother did the work for me while I was out of town and it was a last minute decision. Compared to coils versus leafs, it's so much cheaper.

Did you have to do any fram work?
The reason I ask is I sort of killed my truck a week ago.
Looks to be a good chance to salvage but I do have to
do some work to the radius arm bracket and the frame
in that location.

Unfortunately I haven't painted it yet. My plans are to paint it tuxedo black. I still need to add the 2011 rear fenders and most importantly work on the undercarriage rust. I have a long road ahead of me. I thought about fixing all the dents/scratches and then plastic dip the whole Ex. I'm just not ready to paint until it's almost complete. But the current color is growing on me.
