- Build rear bumper - gussets, receiver hitch
- Finish bobbing the bed - just needs paint
- Build rear wheel wells - done
- Gear, assemble, paint both axles
- Prep new leaf spring packs

- Cage if time permits

Probably still plenty I left off that list.

Can also add to that list build OBA setup, and build driveshafts
 
I have just 2 things to do-
Link the rear
Add more cage
(maybe get a set of RCV shafts too.... we'll see)

Change of plans.... been wrestling with linking the rear, and going through that learning curve/tuning when its done... just don't feel like going down that road now. I KNOW how to make rear leafs work. So I am taking the KISS principle...
-Rebuild rear leafs (again...*sigh*)
-Rear traction bar
-MAYBE more cage-- if it happens it happens...
-Still a possibility for RCV's:anon:

Think you will really get the coils done by NACFest? It would AWESOME if you did.

I can't believe that engine is still running. I think you've released more oil into the environment than the BP drilling rig.
