Howdy Troops. Been a while but I am still at it. Lost a couple of months work time due to having a big art project and teaching but managed to get a few things done. Here's a few updates...

1 and 2 -- Had to fab an extension for the steering shaft.
3 - Looks like it all might fit.
4 - Added more heat shielding to the downpipe off the turbo.
5 - Brake pedal pieces
6 - Pieced together a brake pedal.
7 and 8 - Cleaned up and primed my inner fenders.
9 - Built a spare tire carrier. It now cranks down.
10 - Re-routed my turbo oil return line directly into the pan to make room for other stuff.

Ran out of room in the 10 image thumbnails. Here's are some links tho:

We'll call it image #11.
Built an all new main crossbrace for the frame (to clear the new driveline brake).

And then this one is #12.
Got the new all stainless exhaust hung

Have to take another break here soon as I need to relocate my shop & bus. Not looking forward to the move but it will be a much better working situation. Just gotta keep at it.
