FedEx brought some of the final pieces for the brake system overhaul/upgrade. Powerstop Z36 truck rotor, pads, and parking shoes.

I just put those same rotors and pads on my 80 front axle and I'm very happy with them. I thought the drilled and slotted may be a little overkill but the price was right. Anxious to hear how you like them.

Yeah, I figured why not do it all. Maybe it'll actually work......

I haven't posted up in a while, so it is time for an update.
I got my BIO Step Sliders in and installed last week. I am very happy with the quality, fit, function, and look of them. I was out testing them out after install and lawn darted it into a wash, so I got to use my winch for the first time as well.

When I nosed in and realized I was sitting on the belly, I looked around and there was one puny little shrub in front of me that I figured I would just pull out. To my surprise, it held enough to pull my front wheels into the other side and out I came. Score one for Shrub and Superwinch.

After that, I headed home and tested them out to see if I could lift the side up. My jack topped out but the sliders were solid and did not contact the rockers.
Then, I finally got around to trimming the Vortec engine cover to fit the install. I am steadily chipping coming to the end of the build list. Mainly electrics left, OBA system, rack, awning, and hot water system. I did go ahead and commit to a large volume LS configured radiator. Still working through the fine details, so stay tuned.

I haven't checked in for some time now, but I do have some goodies that I brought back from Australia. Stay tuned and I will get them installed and posted here. Also, after some deal of frustration trying with one company(won't say who) to have a high volume LS swap radiator built, I dropped the coin and went the Gucci route with our buddy up the road in Glendale. With summer temps on the way, I want to put a nail in the cooling effort.

I got some Aussie only bits for the 80. Don't mean to be cheeky about it. I'll post up pics as soon as I can remember. In short, Raslarr SS Snorkel, Travel Buddy Marine oven, and a Glind Shower system. I am most excited for the shower. We took hot showers every night after getting to camp. I can't begin to tell you how amazing that felt. To crawl into your swag all fresh and clean..........oh man.

I miss the pies in London
Burning one's tongue on too hot pie filling is a universal problem. Now, not putting the right filling in the pie to start off with...
