Got most of the wiring out from under the hood. Hopefully more disassembly and mock up the duramax and 4L80E not Allison before we take the cab off.

Had to take care of some other stuff and help my son build a catapult for school. But I got some of the wishbone welded and rear air tank made. Also have the print ready to bend the rails.

I like that gorilla tape. If they had used gorilla tape on @Bgbldodge 's transfer case bracket instead of a half-*** weld, it would have held 😂😂
