small update:



Got the e brake cables installed, all the brake lines flushed with fresh fluid, went through every nut and bolt in the suspension and made sure everything was tight. Getting everything ready for TDS this weekend.

overall the truck did good. crushed a bed corner, mangled a tail light, and blew two tires off the rims. Its all good though. Took it out today and did fantastic. I'll post up some pictures later tonight

well, one was already busted. I just busted it the rest of the way. I got hung up in a notch, and the power steering stopped working, the clutch and truck itself were over heating, so i had to get winched from one side, and pulled by another. when they were pulling me, the ass end hit the wall, causing the carnage.

Thats normal.... there isn't a straight sq ft behind the cab of my truck, thats what you get for wheelin a full bodied long wheelbase truck.

Those look good! What kind of polish did you use? I have some old solid centerlines I've got to clean up to go on WCB2. I have a Mother's powerball, but was wondering about polish you used.
