Did you compromise any axle up travel by setting engine lower?

Nope. Just had to run the f body oil pan and I will either have to notch the tranny pan or run a f body one.

Those are JIC fittings right?
Yes, all russell stuff. The pump is 5/8 o-ring to - 6, the gear box is 5/8 flare to - 6. Then a straight and 45* going into the hose. With russell power steering hose. I can look at my part numbers and post them if you need them.
Gotten a little more work done. Getting the shifter cable worked out really kicked my ass. In the I barely won! Here are the pics though.
Regrinding some gates
The cable mounted up high and tight
I've read the stock lower control arms can't take a hit, so I cut them in half and sleeved them with 2" x. 120 wall dom. Ran 8 spot welds down each side, plus two in the middle where the stock tubes meet up. I also ground down the factory weld and notched the 2" out so I could tig it to the joint itself also.

Also built a computer mount. Back in the passenger side Corner. 
Then we got the pw's out to play!
Got these in last night, front one is on the way, just shipped separately for some reason.
Parts are coming in fast, need to get my ass in gear!
