Thanks guys and yeah, this forum is where I keep everything updated the most. I pop a picture every now and then on LLA. I tried to get some good pics of that 3 link for you guys that were curious about building the rear.
Truck has slowed down due to a couple of reasons, big reason being the new shop. They plan to move that way any day now and didn't want to rip into my front end and my truck be stuck at the old shop, so they will go full force when moved into the new shop. And updated pics I'll post them as I get them.
Also decided to completely shave my gate including the top pad. Was going to just shave the handle, but said fuck it and shave it completely.
Also ordered me some Denali tails because anything I found were scratched, broken tabs, fogging issues, cracked etc etc. I couldn't find any extremely mint ones and I'm very particular on the style I wanted and the condition.
Also finished piecing the brake parts together, now just time to assemble when I get the truck back.
