Thanks,

its the currie kit. and im having some real trouble with it. the tie rod and drag link are too large in diameter and hit each other and the springs. so i redrilled the knuckels and moved them to the top and they clear alot better but i have a feeling im going to have to make my own pitman arm so the drag link clears it when i flex it.

the body is Ricks pro coated( a local shop has there own brand of line x basically but it looks better). Its coated in the engine bay and the whole underside, and the inside will be done after paint. the paint will be chevy metalic green. so far the running total is 33798.56. hopfully it will be at paint by monday. its a little taller that what was wanted. I seem to have a problem with my tires sticking in way too far. i planned on needing wheel spacers but i need a 2" spacer in the rear. does anyone know of a spacer that large and is it safe.

OK, I'll bite. I've not seen linkage like that for that T-Case. Is it electronically shifted? Looks nice. Great work so far.
