    Glassorks fenders/bedsides/bumper caps on ordered tonight, hopefully they ship in a reasonable time frame.

    should be ordering the King coil overs and bolt in rear shocks with compression knobs that will work with the Dakars tonight or tomorrow.

    rims will be ordered next pay day and then once all the parts arrive the install shall take place and then it is off to the body shop to get fenders and bedsides painted.

    after everything is dialed in and checks out good, i will be starting a 20k mile road trip across the US and Canada. stoked!!

    got the welder set up and dialed in this evening, welded up all the alignment tab gussets and one spindle gusset.

    tomorrow will be a full day of welding and assembly. pictures will be up tomorrow night.
    depending how far i get, i am hoping to set the truck down on full bumps and check clearances for everything.
