My 94 truck build

well since i got my 81 stolen i've been looking for a replacement. i ended up deciding on a pretty well built 94 regular cab shortbox with the 22re. so here's what's already done and what i'm planning to do, i'll post some pics either later tonight or tomorrow.
what's already done:
SAS with an 83 solid axle that's been rocked so it has a better pinion angle for its height.
63 inch rear springs with 7 leaves for some reason.
4 inch lift cj-7 springs front, equals out with about 6 inches of lift or a tad more
crossover high steer with a drop pitman arm.
yukon 5.29s front and rear both are open.
w56, single case.
custom front bumper.
35x12.50x15 cooper discovery stt with alloy rock crusher wheels.

my plans:
lower it about 3 inches with a custom RUF pack and taking out as many rear leaves as i can.
arp steering studs
move the front axle forward 3-5 inches
rock the steering box back and use a flat pitman arm.
extended brake lines.
possibly a new front axle housing with factory pinion angle.
possibly dual cases factory gears in both.
long travel front driveline.
heavy duty rear driveline.
custom tube rear bumper.
custom tube rock sliders.
custom transfer case crossmember.
rear disk brakes.
front and rear diff armour.
lockers and longs down the road

That's about all i can think of now but i'm sure there's more that i'm just forgetting

Well my week was freaking busy. Worked on the truck a little just normal maintenance though. Didn't get any pics yet, but got some parts in. Extended brake lines, steering box brace, flat pitman arm, arp studs. Looking for some rear springs before i start the teardown.

Add alarm to the list along with hidden ignition switch. Would hate to see that crap happen again.

looks pretty good, could be just the camera angle but the two sides next to the lights look to be different??

have you heard any thing about your stolen truck? Full cov, pay you off?
