well trans has been in for a month now... fighting massive exhaust leak lol at collectors. scored a hp dana 44 last night and found a gmc grill in junkyard and set of stock k5 wheels to match the spare i got so going to paint them black and put my 35s on. got the axle torn down pretty much all the way. spent the weeknd putting my old body lift on my buddys blazer so not much else done

cut off most the random brackets and ground them down. axle is 95% painted. once its all painted im bringing it inside and going to put it back together. since the spiders are welded in the carrier now found a diff open carrier for 40 bucks with gears off pirate and getting a stock cover to replace the chrome one. crossover arm cam in mail this week too. waiting on collectors for headers so i can drive it again and get a inspection sticker. i didnt know the bolts on 10b carriers were left hand thread so i stripped them all out trying to remove the gears so i got a used set off ebay sittin at house now.
