I guess I can update the status as I understand it: Links are done and tight, brake calipers and rotors are done, brake lines are run and almost done (had trouble bleeding the rear), ARB lines are run and hooked up, axle vent lines are run, battery box is fabbed and painted, knuckles are built and RCV's are installed in the front, Rear axle shafts will be here this week. Had to send several springs back to King to swap for a different spring rate. Radiator and fan shroud are almost ready to go back in for good. Front end body parts need to go back on and exhaust will need to be run after it's all done. Still a bunch of small stuff to do.
Hope to see this thing run by Labor Day weekend!

new springs installed 200/250 in the front and 150/200 in the rear. sitting real close to ride height; however, they will need to adjusted more once the truck is fully back together. shock reservoirs are mounted
