Yea, I'm trying to get as much done as possible, while I wait for my clear zinc plated hardware to come back. I also had them plate all the bolts and U-bolts that hold the front suspension together, so that has been a slight hold up.
But, I decided to get the 9/16 U-bolts for the lower shafts and I have a good supply of new 7/16 grade 8 flange bolts and locking flange nuts in stock, so I'll use those to bolt the front suspension crossmember in. Those bolts are black and look normal when installed.
After the cross member is tight, I can do the final installation for the front suspension and get the engine and trans in. Then, I should be able to mock up the rear suspension and start mocking up the exhaust.
I plan to get a lot done this weekend.
