Well got the new shockmounts welded up , swapped out the PAC coils for RE5.5s and put
New shocks up front. And a currie antirock. And new re 5.5 leaves. Welded up a new drag link recently and have been focused on figuring out storage lately.

Here are some preliminary pics as I mock things up

And I built the tire carrier this week. And started hacking up plywood and mocking up the storage box parts. Waiting on the drawer slides still.

Removed the hatch and doors and rear glass. Ordered some tube doors for the sake of time. Going to be chopping up the roof and going to make a softop.
Also added some leaves to the rear And made a cheap bumper from 2x4 .120 since the old bumper was broken and trashed.

Also in the process of making a lightweight mini tailgate to hold crap in.
