I am digging this Build HTO. The fact that you give so much info along the way is really motivating to a new builder!

Plus, those beams are AMAZING! I am looking forward to seeing this truck in person!

So after the wedding I started pulling apart the front end and replacing the beams and brackets! Well the diff has some chunked spider gears so that gets fixed Monday. (Thank you Tony) here is a few shots of progress.

Lol I'm building this at a slower pace man, I've learned that I HATE doing things multiple times. The front end will receive new ball joints and tie rod ends and spindles. (New to me on the spindles). I had to clearance the passenger side beam bracket a little for the uniball cups, and that was pretty much it for the alterations. By the way thank you Steve (chasetruck) for the beam brackets and Scott who has answered all of my questions!

Thanks Chris! After Baja I knew that if I wanted to hang with all you fine gentlemen I needed to set the truck up clean. You all have inspired and directed me. Thank you guys.
