Little update.... I got all the welding done to the front frame section and got all the welds cleaned up. I also made new bumper brackets that mount the bumper to the radiator support instead of the frame. Then I got the truck torn down, back on the jig, and ready to cut the old frame section off. I should have the new frame section on the truck 2mro and will post all the pics then

I like how the upper bag mount flows into the upper a-arm bracket mount.

I finally got the new frame section back on the truck and put all the old control arms and steering on. I also test fit the motor and trans that im swappin in and found out that the firewall and trans tunnel is goin to have to go. I am also goin to have to redo the steering tie rod ends and the linkage from the rack to the steering column.  Im stoked to have this much done but got lots of work ahead so stay tuned!!!
