Thanks! I hope it turns out all right. I wanna see this baby flex Too! LOL
Its gonna be a little while till i get some flex pics =/ I still have to finish up the front end, drivetrain, and rear. So far ive got the front frame rails and axle Bare, front hanger fitted and welded, steering box removed, 4" TG leaves and shackles mounted. And OMG this little tiny Hobart 125ci Plasma Is one of the best tools ive bought(No more cutting wheels and vibrating hands)

Next up is to gusset, armor, and install new 3rd /w 5.29's, chromoly Axles/birfs, Hub gears, V6 rotors and calipers,etc, etc, etc...lol
and Yes the pics r comin..

Nice start , man I cant believe how clean it is, that engine bay is ridiculous. Those zip ties won't be strong enough for the spring hanger , just sayin.

I didnt SAS...its an 85. But when u weld in a spring hanger u lose the oem front tow hook position. When the tube bumper goes on i can weld on D rings wherever i want. A winch and a few D ring points should b plenty of options for recovery.
