    Sorry I have been failing at taking pictures lately. I got the link geometry figured out and cycled, more work in the cab done and started the engine cage. Shocks should be here this weekend too hopefully.

    I haven't got to do anything on it this past week. 75 hour work week will do that though. I should be getting back after it this week. My plan is to have the cab back together by this weekend and then I can move back to the rear until the frontend shows up

    Couple pictures to show some progress.
    A pillar dimple die tie in plates. I was also able to weld the tube straight to the cab in a few places under the plate. Had to do the simple does though because bitches love dimple dies.

    A couple of the START of the engine cage. Not even close to being done.

    Finished off the end caps all nice and pretty

    Also got all the holes in the floor patched so the interior can go back in once I get the tube work painted.

    Picked up all the shocks tonight thanks to my buddy Kellan at king shocks. 3.0 triple bypasses and 2.5 coil overs all around.

    Nope they will just be mounted really far back on the link. Using a 16in coil over and 18in bypass will get me about 21-22in of travel that way which will be more then enough.

    They are the performance series but the bypasses have race series tubes and internals
