Keep forgetting to update this thread. Truck is on the road and doing good. Had some issues with the truck running right. First it would idle real high and diesel real bad when I shut it off. Retarded the timing and it helped but had no power. Talked an old drag racer buddy into coming over and helping out and had her fixed in about an hour. Ignorant me didn't think that by not hooking up the electric choke would cause any issues. Come to find out without it hooked up it never fully turns off. Ran a wire and truck immediately ran better. Advanced the timing and now its running like a champ.
Finished up the stereo last week and it turned out decent. Running (2) Rockford Fosgate Punch 4" in the dash, 6.75" components in Retrosound kickpanel enclosures, Prime 4-channel amp and a RF 8" powered sub under the passenger seat. Overall it sounds pretty good. The dash speakers are almost useless to the point I may take them out and replace the amp with a higher-quality 2-channel. Adding a second sub is another option. Source is an Exile Audio Bluetooth receiver for my phone.
I'm still sorting out the suspension but probably going to install my drop blocks in the back and go from there. The front springs have settled pretty good but still debating on just getting CPP 2" front drop springs.
Here's a few pics to get caught up
