Excellent!
Tried to use an air hammer at first. That didn't work at all. Ended up grinding the rivets off and smacking it with a hammer to get it off.
I took this the other day after I did the front springs, I thought it was a pretty cool picture.
You need a torch. Best tool ever.
Did you get Baker's axles?

I'm supposed to pick them up today. I have the 12 bolt and the gas tanks out and I'm working on the front hangers. Holy pain on the ass.
Got the 12bolt out
Picked up the 4.56 geared D44 and 14FF
Going to try to run a buddys 36's until I find tires if they don't death wobble too bad.
Rusty hanger
yep
Both front hangers are off
Going to see if I can take my rear springs to have new bushings put in them. One still has the hanger bolted on cause I can't get the bolt out and the other one has just a bolt in it.

Those are just factory speed holes.
The 14bolt is ready to bolt up. Hopefully do that tonight.
The rear is all done other than bleeding the brakes. This thing is getting pretty tall. I might have to put it on steelies to get it out of the garage 
.
Now I`m starting to get jealous!
Looks good!

make sure you have plenty of slipyoke left with the 14. I think wades was too long and that is why he broke his 208. also I wouldn't pull on the rear crossmember if it is the one I think it is. they are super thin. Time for a bumper.

haha thanks man
I'll have to check. About how much do I want? I've never hooked anything to the rear crossmember yet, only the frame. I just want a bumper like Marty's, i'll have to look into getting that done.
You keeping that rim/hubcap combo?? I love that look
