Cool build!
But does it have square headlights?! 
Looks like a cool build, can't wait to see more.

1st attempt to stab the nv4500 was a fail, took a break, Engine was to high on a stand to get the correct angle, rechecked clutch with alignment tool, was still ok...

So should I switch to 64 inch springs in the rear? I already have the shackle flip, so I could just turn them around... I have to have driveline remade anyway at this point.
