Hahaha I will I will..

Dimples!!!
I have a ton of pics I am going to upload to it.
So far I have been really busy with boring stuff, making body mounts, removing frame brackets, waiting.. and more waiting..
The cooler for the Tig is down, nothing gets welded until that is fixed, I have to get the pump replaced.
In the mean time, I have made the radius arm tabs, beam pivot dimples(which you've seen) I cleaned some stuff up, organized my work area(yay) and squared the chassis up along with squaring it up on the lift. More to come.
So I assume a no go on this pointer to the gallery? To much of a pita?

If we click that picture it will take us to more pictures? If it means more pics of this build, I'll take it!
If I understand correctly, non-members won't be able to see them. I know it's a catch 22, but the non-member views can help bring more people in. Either way, if I can see them I'm good with it
Post it in the build thread.

Ok I'll fix it. Thanks for the feedback!
I apologize if anything is a repost I am having a hard time keeping track of some of this so bare with me.
I got the Frame brackets welded up.
Body mounts also made, what a pain!! but they are done! I increased the spacing 1/2 inch so technically is a mini body lift.
Ditched the front spring hangars finally! This was ceremonial haha finally divorced
Here is the lot of the parts I have had to gather, I am missing some stuff like the guts for the 9 inch, wheels tires etc..
Brake kit from Ruff Stuff! I couldn't piece it together any cheaper! they were handing out discounts for veteran's day I think and had to pull the trigger.
Also is the Winters shifter std pattern, limit straps, poly bumps for the rear(just in case) the bypasses have a bump zone.
Big shocks!! this is my favorite part so far, Man shocks!! lol these have been modified with the Blackhawk reservoir which I covered earlier in the thread.
And there is lots more to come! I have yet to take pics of the finished beams!!! I actually got flash burned really bad and couldn't see for a day!! scary stuff. Remember people always wear your PPE but even when you do be thoughtful of your surroundings because radiation can get you even if your not facing it!

That was fun to scroll through! THanks!
Picked up the springs, got s smoking deal from a Friend.
He had these fiberglass fenders so I picked them up, they are 3 inch flare, I'll have to do some minor repair, I guess a good a chance to learn fiberglass.

I think I just got rid of that same pair of fenders lol.
Lol I'm gonna fix em, they are better than my stock fenders and save weight.. A lot.
There is a guy on Facebook making them for 350 a pair.
