    OKAY! Officially started/hoping to complete the build last night.
    Laid everything out on the floor making sure i have everything (Besides the extended brake line which wont be here until today because All-Pro forgot to ship it...).
    [​IMG]
    Started with the rear, quickly realizing the stock U-Bolts will not work with the new leaf back being there's only 1/2 inch thread left and the new pack is nearly an inch thicker. (Thanks for not telling me All-Pro, after i specifically asked if there's anything else i need for the new leaf pack). Went to the local NAPA, ordered extended Bolts which will be in today and hopefully get the rear done so i'm not riding like a chollo anymore. The Front install was easy at first(Taking stock coils/shocks off). But i was unable to take the top nut off one of the shocks so i was forced to break the damn thing. Everything else was pretty self explanatory. I wish i would have bought new bushings however..... So far it drives perfectly straight and the steering remains tight as a crabs buttox! ;)
