And some good news, my rear detroit and 529s are in, and I got my hi-angle driveline, driveshafts in today!! I am glad I decided to rebuild the rear axle cause the bearings were shot!!! There was almost an inch of play on the outside edge of the backing plate!! We are having some trouble getting those bearings out too, anyone know a trick??

Damn I haven't checked this thread out in a while lol You're trucks lookin awesome! 
And yes you may be beating me but I still don't have fairy pink stripes on my truck...
jk and you should weld the rear bumper to the frame like Marlin suggests, or else it will shift around when hit on a rock or whatever smashing in the roll pan or the bottom rear corner of the bed.
Are you plannin on gearing the t-case? This summer I'm gettin 4.7's and a budbuilt crossmember that will give me 3 inches of clearance over stock. Just gotta get out of Las Vegas and get back home to my truck lol

tis a nice looking truck man!
I was reffered here on my questioning of the MC front bumper
around my parts here, me and my buddys have a saying about Boggers; You either go, or you break. Well I bolted a buddy's set to my 91 just for fun once, and well, I didn't break anything... but I did still manage to get myself stuck, lol

Well I brought the truck home for the weekend, so i could do some stuff to it, and here are the pics...tell me what you think!!!
Just getting it home
Heres a driveway pic, I was doing my new harness, and it went really smooth and didnt take that much time!!!
Here is the main reason I wanted to bring it home
I also bought one of these and put it in, I actually only paid about 70 bucks for it cause the people at autozone know me and took my old duralast gold in for a trade in!!
And Looky what my sis got me for christmas!!! Good thing I got the 60in one!!
And this straightened up my rear bumper too! So are you happy 89silverpu!! lol
A pic next to my buddys yota he just got today, its a 2wd prerunner!
They are getting my gears and lockers in monday, so they will be installed Asap, I will be giving the truck back to the shop monday to to get the sliders and lockers installed!! Then there will be flex pics!! I drove it around today and its a dog with stock gears and 37s!! And the boggers are so loud that they sound like an airplane at 40mph!!
I also played with the winch, pulled my friends avalanche on the pavement!! Was nice

89silverpu: I plan on doing the engine sometime during 2009 and the dual cases 2009-2010, and I dont want to weld the rear bumper up yet, because it would be a biotch to paint around.
snobdds: Yeah, I am planning on it!!
iamsuperbleeder: I like the bumper, as I said on your thread it doesnt stick up that far!
AZ89LONGBED: Thanks LOL, I call the pre-runner my trucks girly grandson. Its almost the same, its silver, and 4cyl. Just automatic and 2wd (where the girly part comes in!!)
