      I didn't want to, but I couldn't see spending time and money rebuilding the stock rear end so I broke down and bought a complete Moser 12-bolt. It has 3.73 gears, Tru-trac, 33 spline bolt-in axles, 1350 yoke, and of course the brackets to bolt it in. It also came with a long panhard bar and adapter brackets. It's a VERY NICE unit...



      Yesterday the wire harness showed up. This is the "update" kit that includes modern fuses, and connections for an internal regulator alternator and HEI...



      And I got an power steering adapter kit from CPP, which I actually had time to install tonight...

      Outer bracket (the bumper bracket needs to be modified)-


      Inner bracket-


      And the steering box-

      LOL, I haven't heard that term before when referencing these trucks...is it a reference to the A piller that you can "knock your knees on" when getting in/out of the truck?

      Thanks guys and no offense taken... it is a POS but that's kinda what I wanted when I bought this truck. No LS for this one, just a good old fashion 454!

      I was going to install the front sway bar yesterday but first I have to fabricate some spacers for the mounts because the PS adapter bracket hangs below the frame in the exact spot the sway bar crosses the frame. No biggie.

      Here are the ridetech ride height sensors that tell the electronic leveling system the position of the suspension.



      The front sensors installed...

      I finally got the bed detached from the frame and I figured I should get the patch work sheet metal out of the bed before I remove it. On Friday a few guys from work are going to help me take the bed off so I can get started on the rear suspension.



      I also got the hydroboost installed. Now I can make the brake lines and get them routed.



      And of course, no brake system is complete without an adjustable proportioning valve and a roll control!
