Mounted the power steering reservoir.
Stealth shot of the hired help
I'm almost finish the switch panel. More pics later on
Here's the switch panel
All in a water proof ammo box which opens when you need it to.
Then he can swing up here after you're done with him.
Maybe I need to retire and become a traveling mechanic.
So I figured out today that some time last week ,I most likely threw away a cardboard box full of like $200 in Russell fittings thinking it was garbage 
We spent the better part of 2 hours in the auto parts store this morning. Me replacing all the fittings and Keith searching thru radiator hoses and exhaust tubing to get what we needed to run the water lines for the rear mounted radiator.
I had to move the steering pump reservoir, the hose kinked up once I hooked it up. We got the hood pins replaced and correctly mounted. Got the radiator figured out, mounts built and mounted in place. The radiator tubes are run, just need to figure out the ends. During the running of the radiator tube we fixed a body mount and replaced a transfer case bolt that the fab shop ghetto'd. I also painted the backside of the cab.
We set a goal to start it tomorrow. we'll see
