Z'd the frame 2", pie cut the upper arms for better ball joint angle, 2x3 under the cab, 2x4 back half.(it's only this way cuz the owner didnt want to BD the truck at first) The rear bag mounts are getting trown in the gutter and new mounts installed next week. Next week is also installing a new tranny x member and building new, lowered engine mounts from the 2'' z and keeping the motor under the hood. Maybe do the front frame horns if were lucky and get enough time

dont have one quite yet. I use my companies shop in Anahiem to work on my projects. All my tools are there. I built my fullsize there earlier this year and was a great help to have the space and heavy equipment to make life a bit easier
