Got the fuel tank flushed and installed, fuel tank skid plat on, and mounted the new rear bumper and tire carrier. Rolled it out and used some straps to lift the body and roll the chassis under it.

OP sactoller Campfire Outfitter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 9,714 Weatherford, TX	Ran into a problem with mounting the body. On my new rear cross member, I measured the holes wrong. So had to lift the body again and drill the holes in the correct place and got the body all squared up on the frame. Got the tub secured and installed my tail lights and back up lights. Also, had my headers machined to square the face. Waiting on a guy to get back from vacation so we can mount the power steering box, new front shock mounts and re-gear the rear end.

OP sactoller Campfire Outfitter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 9,714 Weatherford, TX	Well, got some important stuff done yesterday! Thanks to Troy from Troy's Offroad. Got the steering box mounted, spring shackles reversed, shock mounts removed, new mounts welded on, tie rod swap kit. Now I'm just waiting on the new gears for the rear end, should be in Tuesday along with the 1.5" wheel spacers. Will install on Saturday. Now to find a steering column....
