Jeff, you could always just offer to trade the grill for a truck. I think Todd would trade for his new truck and then you would just have to swap the Engine. Plus you would have a parts truck...LOL

LOL I would but I am still working on something else right now.
Also another tiny update...Truck is now in the garage and on jackstands. Getting ready to head out to garage and start cutting the front here shortly. Decided I will deal with the motor later. I want to see some damn progress on my truck.

Mazda Tweaker...Yeah I tried that...not soo much that was using a 5lb baby sledge as well. Went through two pieces of 2X4. She is locked tight. I think the previous owner really jacked it up. I will try again though. Thanks.

And here it is the actual begining of the bagging. I know these are all pretty normal but in the sense of a build thread I am documenting it all. Please give me some input or pointers if you have any.
Thanks and enjoy.
As it sits in the garage before the work.
Lower control arm all clean and ready to cut for bag mount.
Upper Arm ready for a good bath, sanding and then paint.
Then Finally the end of the day pic.
Now if I only had a plasma cutter my life would be soooo much easier. All I have is small cutoff wheel and a sawzall...which I went through 3 blades today. I am pretty stoked and not sure how I am going to do the upper bag bracket....trying to keep it clean and dependable.

Progress is looking good Jeff. Trust me, if you were a little closer, I would definitely let you borrow the plasma cutter. I think I find a new use for that thing every time I use it LOL - well worth the investment. Mazdatweaker has a good point - pull the motor & tranny at the same time. I know for a fact that a manual trans bolted to the motor will go in and out of the truck without to much trouble (have done it like 6 times already).
