Well I've made a bit more progress. Finally remade my intercooler piping out of aluminum. Got some more of the front end fitted, and got the fenders cut along with the flares. Still a long way to go.

Welded in my roll pan last night. Installed hubcentric rings and reinstalled the mud flap brackets. If you took them off put them back on or you'll tear your bedsides haha.

And the company i got the rollpan from seemed to like my work haha.

Got tired of the bare metal look so I threw a quick coat of paint on the fender today.

Built myself a set of blocks. 2.75" on the passenger side 2.5" on the drivers side. Cleared em to leave the fab work visible. Raised the rideheight front and rear a tiny bit.
