Workin on the rig Nov 5th

[poorboy1]

Sorry short notice again for the guys that wanted to come out last time. The plan is to do a little work on the truck on Saturday Nov 5th. I can't get to carried away, I am still healing up but there is lots of prep to do.

I need to borrow a set of tall jack stands to put under the rear frame for a while. I could also use a better 3/4" drill bit to open up all the holes on my new brackets.

Plan on removing the old bump cans, link brackets, and need to disassymble the front a little more. Pull the radiator and winch. Remove old front brake lines. Come up with a lower link removable crossmember for the front or at least a plan for one.

I should rotate the 205 back into the stock location too. That would require modifying my old braket and building a new side mount support. It doesnt have to rotate down but it will be higher than the belly with the new lower links either way.

I will probably head out between 10am and 11am.
