Uppers are factory that are flipped with new Moog balljoints and I got the Belltech offset bushings. I just coated them with chassis black when I originally built them for my gray truck

Not sure what wheels they are, but I do know they're 17". I will try to see if I can find a name brand on them tomorrow

I don't think I ever posted these, but I put in my solid motor mounts from a member on here. Had them powdercoated when I did my turbo hot parts and flip kit

Got my catch can installed and routed in a way I can still run the 3 piece covers

Also installed all the front suspension and Wilwoods today. Only think I'm missing at this point is the actual coilovers. I do need to order the 2wd brake hoses since the ones I had for my torsion bar truck don't fit now

Thanks guys, I'll try to keep this thread moving

Not too much to post, but I ordered some odds and ends:

-Wilwood brake lines for 2wd
-3ft relocation hose for my fuel pressure sensor so I can remote mount it on the firewall
-New AC line since this one is leaking
-Installed the filter and elbow that comes with the kit, but it's not my style. I ordered a polished aluminum elbow with similar dimensions and a straight silicone coupler. This should match the polished charge pipe tubing that enters the throttle body. Should look nice

This truck is everything that I hope my truck can be one day. Amazing attention to detail, and it looks like you picked up a very solid truck to start with. Good luck with the rest of the build!
