I might have the steering and core support mounts on by then, I don't know.  Its been to hot for my fat ass to get out there and work after being in the heat all day long.

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by RSPICS? PICS? CURIOUS TO SEE THESE SPINDLES.---------------------------------------------This is the spindle so far. This is a pic of the back side, the four bolts in the center mount the hub assemble and the two outer bolts mount the caliper bracket. All that is left to do is mount four link style brackets (gussets included) to this for the uniballs, and make mounts for the steering heim joints. I have put them on hold until the new frame section is on the truck and the new motor and trans is in.

Ok little update.... I did'nt take to many pics so sorry guys. But I got all the peices (motor mount plates and tabs, upper bag plates and gussets) cut out for the front with the plazma cutter. I am really excited I got my motor and trans, at first I didnt think I could make it work because of header and steering issues but I think I have a good plan sketched out. I will be taking a ton of pics of the swap but im not goin to post any pics of the motor or trans until after RA 2010 (where I plan to debue the motor and front end). Any how on with a couple pics of the upper and lower control arm mounts.

All the work looks really good.  Is the truck going to be able to lay all the way out 22's?

Can't wait to see it done!
