I got some work done on the disc brakes for the rear the machinist came over today and we atrted the trial fit of the adapter plate that will mesh the two pieces together. Also got the rotor centering rings as well and they worked perfectly rotor is 100% centered on the rear hub

.
On the 6l80e going to upgrade the output shaft when it is torn down for the shaft conversion so i wont have any problems with shattering drums in the trans which apparently the 6l80's have a problem with.

Got my 2wd tail housing on order for the trans and have a trans shop lined up to replace the output shaft here in a few months, Dirty dingo slider mounts are on order and will have some pics of the onstall coming up soon when they are on the engine and ready to drop it in

I'm really digging the build. Looks like you've got some awesome plans for the truck. Also, it's cool to see another guy from plano.

Maybe we'll have to meet up and show off our trucks sometime
