okay my son wanted me to lower the rear so he helped me last night, once the sun started to set we finished in the dark with a worklight. used my djm flip kit, pulled 2 leafs and flopped the stubby leaf on top as a spacer.

then decided I can get more done if i have some shade so I broke down and bought a canopy.

then something I've never had to deal with is the cab cross member, it's been nice owning ext cabs...lol
don't look too close at the cab seam there either, just used some 3m boat sealant to keep the rust out till I get seam sealer on it. Just trying to get seams all at once so I'm still waiting to see if it needs tubbed in the firewall, and driveline notch in the floor maybe?

thanks, I'm thinking of ditching the lug covers on the wheels and using chrome nuts, and new shinny dustcaps. I've had the covers off for a while and they have grown on me without!
