Good call!!! I just found my 4 O2 sensors this morning as well!! I will label it and find the other one that should be in the same spot on the other frame so that I don't forget, thanks!
Any ideas on the first one that's on top of the fuel tank?

im not positive but i kinda think that the first plug in you pics has something to do with the fuel pump or maybe the evap system does your truck have a aftermarket pump i kinda think it did since the guy that had it before you had a maggie on it if i remember correctly
the last two are def the rear o2 sensors

the last two are def the rear o2 sensorsSo that might be an old connection from the stock system that isn't used with the aftermarket fuel pump?

Yea..
I think the truck was closer to 900hp... It was completely stupid..
Dont worry too much about that plug, the pcm will set a dtc and let you know what it is for... (It ether supplies power and ground for something or is a resistant style sensor.) If it has dirt in it it mostlikally was not used. Maybe it was a option for the diesels? maybe a anti rattle device? *** it..

Thanks Brian, I was actually wondering about that and maybe you can help me out with a few questions. A u-joint is meant to handle between 1 - 3 degrees of pinion angle under normal conditions. I read up on it a while ago and not sure on a couple things. It says for vehicles with a ladder bar set-up (which I have) I need around 1/2 degree of pinion angle. And cars with Leaf-springs (check) need between 6-7 degrees of pinion angle. So if I go with the first option regarding the ladder bar set-up I just need about a 1 degree negative pinion angle and I can call it a day right?
Also does the suspension need to be loaded or do I do it while the suspension is unloaded? I'm talking about the bed here mostly, I'd have to wait to put the bed back on I would imagine right?
Got any shims and angle finders I could borrow?
It looks like it hasn't been used since Henry first introduced a wrench to the truck so I will just leave it alone. I've come to the point of dealing with the wiring harness and this is just stupid!
I think you and Henry need to come down to LA for a weekend of fun in the sun!!
(well shade because ya'll will be in my garage!!
)
I think Joseph (1Fastbrick) is gonna come over and help out on Saturday night.

Thanks Curt!!! ...you know there's something of yours that I want!!
I'll promise to provide more Tim Allen comedy for everyone but I think I should get a reward for all my troubles!! 

Yeah bring it!! Never done it before but I have a pretty good idea on how to do it although I'm kinda hoping that I won't even need to shim a thing. Truck has 10's of thousands of miles on a similar 6L + 80e set-up so I can't see why there would need to be all that much shimming of the rear end or tranny mount needed. (wishful thinking here)

I'm soooo SLOWWWWW!! 
Anyways, Got the transmission linkage on without breaking the E-clip!! (aren't you happy dusty!)

I think I'm missing a retaining clip right??

I saw these two connectors...

and thought to myself..."oh great more f'ing clips that don't have connectors...BUT then I remembered the two behind the linkage!!


I started looking around the engine bay for other stuff and ran into this...

It's 5 feet worth of wiring for the windshield wiper pump that was coiled up like a snake in front of the tank!
I was about to cut it down by 4'11" but then I realized why it was soo long and was stoked that my truck is pre-wired for a relocation tank for when I get a meth kit!
