For those who are following my progress here are some pics. Last round of upgrades and additions really tightened up the front end and gave me beef in the rear to match the front.

Installed:
Trussed Super 8.8 (open) 4.56
Gauges and hardware to monitor Trans Temps
IronMan Fab 4x4 Motor Mounts
RE Extreme Duty Crossmember
AC Compressor Replaced

Thanks man.

Haven't decided on what to do with the fenders yet. Depending on which way I go I'll address the side molding then.

Looks great. Come a long way from when you got it. The front end is good to go now from what it sounds like.

Those brackets came with the ORO UTurn Steering kit. Tie into the knuckle with the hub bolts and a bolt through the original TR mounting point.

Thanks.

Yeah learned a lot along the way, found a alignment and caster that worked. Fixed some rattles. There is still plenty to do but now I can go have some fun. I can also turn my attention to my DD and have some fun with that.

That's how the BTF ones are. Neat, I haven't seen anyone running something similar.
