Well I've been workin' hard on the runner.I got the shackle mounts moved back. I took ten inches out of the box and that's all welded up. I cut the fire wall all the way to the body mounts and re-welded them. I ended up cutting a little of the rear body mounts out and adding some plate steel to them. The turbo is raped in some header rap. My 3rd member is up at Renegade gettin' the gears and Detroit locker installed. Last year I broke the cross support ears off of the T-Maxx winch. I lucked out and Renegade had some parts for it and had just what I needed so that's all back together. Tomorrow I'm gonna go up to Renegade and use the plasma cutter and shorten the rear bumper brackets to move the bumper in to the body. I've got 3 weekends 'til our top truck challenge. I'm gonna be there come hell or high water. I'm going to go out to the garage and take some pics. Keep in mind my fab skills are not nearly as good as pumpkin toys. My truck is never going to be as clean as yours dude. Wish you lived a little closer. I could use some help cleaning up my sloppy skills.
sounds like you are making good progress, thats good to hear man!  Thanks for the compliments, thats greatly appreciated.  Also if you want to, you can use a photo resizing site to get your photos the right size to post.  I use this one  http://www.picresize.com/  pretty easy and quick to use.
