Looks good!

Yep, great thought. I think it's close now but I might have to tweak it a little once it's driven and the bed is back on, etc. It's sitting at 2.5" spindle and 2" spring now up front, and 6" spring, 1" block and T/A flip mod in the rear (approx 6.25" drop) We'll see how it pans out but I just don't want it to start hitting the tops of the inner fenders.

I gotta get it finished up and get the bugs worked out of it or I won't make the HRPT either. I just need to sacrifice GG this weekend so I can focus on the bed assembly, final stuff for the door panels, etc. If you look really close I have some primer on the lower corners of the cab. It has had some work done in the past many years ago and had some old filler and sand scratches in it. The bed wasn't taken off when it was painted and they apparently could only reach so far back between the bed and the cab. I'm going to fix that before I put the bed back on.
