Shock hoops fabbed up and mounted. Used nearly all stock hole locations with exception to a few. In the process of redoing them, for only one reason being that the shocks I ended up going with have 14" of travel and I need to make a set that are extended approximately 4 more inches. Will be selling these shortly.
Swapped out the original NP241 push button for an NP243 manual shift. Got a slip yoke eliminator kit, all new seals, and swapped out the front shaft from the NP241 for a shorter shaft output on the front. This allows for a slightly less degree on the front shaft when all is said and done. Painted it up of course while it was off.
Starting to show some progress......a much needed place to get to at this point. Alot of work done already. Complete underside of the truck was given 3 coats of chassis paint, then rockerguard to it all. Front of box and backside of cab also got the same treatment.
Maiden voyage to a show in Winnipeg "summer shocker" a couple years ago. Got to the show only an hour before trophies were handed out, and pulled off a first place (not much competition was there, I'll admit...but was funny non the less...lol). Truck was only finished 2 hours prior to this picture and then drove it 2 hours each way. No big problems during the trip...was all good.
