Getting closer! I even hooked the battery up for a minute to make sure it still ran after moving everything and extending 77 wires (I counted them!). Hopefully I will be able to finish it up tomorrow. I just have to cut the bed floor and mount up the tank, compressors, valve block and batteries.

I already said it on SSM, but I will say it again. MichiganMetalWorks.com for everything control arm related!!! I have never been happier with a set of control arms. Customer service is awesome as well.

Here is what I got done today. I wanted to finish it today... close but no cigar. I am waiting on a second battery from Kinetik, so it will look symmetrical when it's all done. A couple little things to do tomorrow and I have an alignment appointment at 4pm.

looks good! Those UCAs and LCAs look awesome!
Im digging your watts link too. The rendering doesnt do the wheels justice. They look way more awesome in the pics. The rendering makes them look a bit tuner-ish.
Also in your rendering its bodied.... is that coming soon? wink wink lol.

Thanks guys. I am not sure when and if I will ever body drop it. I am going to see if I can make it to SEMA with this truck as well as a customers truck that is in the paint shop right now. Primary focus is on the other truck, so there is no way I will have time to body drop my truck before SEMA.
