Shock hoops are in. Used a through frame NPT sleeve to get the brake lines on the other side of the frame. Had braided stainless lines made up too.

But thats not all. Inside and pinned to the filler neck are quick disconnect jumper leads. Pretty handy if I say so myself.

Was able to get a better windshield frame. Mine was rotted in the channels where repairs are not an option. Here is a small picture. Doesnt look that bad but the lip that the gasket seats on is gone in most places.

Time for some small updates. Now that the flu season, holidays, work, and emergency home repairs have passed progress came begin on the final push. First order was to fles the suspension out and measure for driveshafts and shocks. I got to drive the truck! Granted with no brakes or engine not sure if it counts. Felt good all the same.

Rear driveshatf should be ready to be picked up tomorrow.
Shocks are Fox 2.0 16" remote reservoirs. Not wild about chrome but what are you going to do?

Going to wait until the driveshaft is on before bending the rear shock hoops just in case
