Full install write up and commentary will be coming in the next couple of days.
So far, very impressed with the TT quality.

Yes. I noticed the sign. One great thing about having your own shop... you can put whatever floats your boat on the walls.
Learn something new every day. Today's was that Rick has multiple shops to work in (ACC's and his company shop). No wonder he is so productive.
Kudos on the work. Making good progress on the lift today.
Looks great OnurIn other news, lift is installed and done.
Thanks again to my good friend @BMThiker for the gracious help today. And @orangefj45 for a few text message tech help.

Got around to putting in the new tie rod and drag link.
The old ones put up a fight but they came off. After looking at them I had two bad tie rod ends and a slightly bent drag link......

With 30 yr old trucks you'll be doing a lot of this when you are installing new suspension:
And this:
And a lot of moving pieces around to get things to fit.... These aren't simple 80 series rigs.

Lot of fun at Cruiserfest. Met up with @cruiserdan to look at his front PTO wishes. Cussed and discussed slider installs for the 70s and had a few beers. Thanks Dan.
I also received 12 sets of 10-30V LED combo bumper turn signals from my supplier. Same lights that are in the Kaymar 70 rear. These are available for shipping NOW. $105.00 per set shipped.
Also got to meet up with @eman375 to look at his Ute for front and rear bumper designs. We have a good game plan to work off of now. Hope to see you soon.
Lots of interest on the 70 rear bumper. But, unfortunately it is on the way back to WY with me. So, @elkaholic ... the platform is set for your build. I'll get in touch with you tomorrow or Tuesday to finalize details.
Thanks again all,
Jason

I think it is Professor Dumbledore on vacation from HogwartsView attachment 1133442 Just to be clear, Dan's the one with the "Crocodile Dundee" hat?
No, Dumbledore was much taller and his hat was more pointy.
Good point. Whatever their identities, they appear to be having a good time!
