some new pics..I have been moving kinda slow. Sliders have to go on and shock hoops/bumpstops. Tcases will be dropped off as soon as Scott gets some time.

All the shackle angles are off cause the truck is bare...i think a few people could pick it up.

Hub idea...gotta finish around the bolts

What color are you painting it? I can't remember if you mentioned that or not already.

I'm thinking (for mine) black top, black wheels, and Atomic Orange Metallic body
