I knew this day would come! Looking forward to seeing your awesome fab work done on a 2nd Gen. I would love to see my IFS cut off and dropped on the ground!

yeah for the past week there wasn't much to update because it was mostly cutting more brackets off the frame and cleaning the frame up .
ill get some pics up today , so far i got a new cross member welded in under the engine , yesterday i got the old transmission cross member out and started on a new one with lower link gusset/transmission mounts

awsome job man, have you installed the rear drive shaft yet? I'd like to see the slip yoke eliminator in action

Yes I wish someone would mass produce a SYE kit for our trucks, even the Hack'n Tap style like what you've come up with. I'ts so nice being able to putt off the trail or back to the main road without losing all your fluid if you bend or break a DS.
