Thanks guys!
I'm working on it as much as I can, with the motivation I have, lol... Been getting a little here and theres to keep me from working on the truck, but I still try!
As far as the bag brackets for the rear, I went onto SD on got their bag on bar brackets. The brackets I have were made for the square links I believe.
Thats good to know immortal! I was a little worried, lol. Once I get the setup complete I'll be on my way to get the right size shocks... Hopefully I'l still get an ass ton of lift, lol!
UPDATE!
I just got inside to post this up, and I gotta wait for it to dry so I can go put on another coat of this crazy stuff!
I need to get this place organized again, lol. Its a real mess...
The final welded product! I'm thinking about making a battery trat and getting another battery.
New shock member added in and moved to the rear of the notch! Clears the rear end very well, and will allow me to get 100% efficiency out of my shocks!
My new welding gloves. They are pretty dang comfortable for $10, but a little cumbersome and sometimes have a hard time feeling the trigger on the gun.
Axle housing all ground down and cleaned up! Had to get new inner seals put in cause it was slinging gear lube out the sides!
I had to weld like this for 3 days until I got my new gloves, I really hated overhead welding like this, lol!
POR-15'ed! Its like applying a rhino lining. Real thick stuff and REAL messy. Or maybe I'm messy, haha.
So the stupid directions never said about what container to put it in, and I had it in plastic cups. Well, por-15 eats it like no tomorrow! So it ended up more on my shoe and the ground than the rear end!
Axles all cleaned up and grease and dirt removed. Painted up a bit to make it look better...
Well, thats it for the time being! I'll probably get one more coat on the rear end and maybe prep the frame out for the paint. I got a wedding to go to tomorrow, so I might get something done Tuesday, lol...

That POR15 looks like it works pretty good. May have to get some for the daughtsers truck before the sheetmetal rots away LOL.
Definately lookin nice! Did you ever find a break line for that?
