Finally made some progress. Back end is almost ready for paint.

Exhaust pipe re-run so it's no longer the lowest point. Also re-notched the back to get a little more clearance there. Removed the 2" blocks and moved the upper bag mount up to the new notch (+5" drop, and little more pressure in the rear bags for a net of about 2" more drop).

Wow! An update? I got the front of the truck a little lower with the new crossmember and ART arms installed. Now I'm "tuckin' exhaust pipe" ;-)

I've also got the cab painted, and am now working on some of the inside mechanicals so I can make the swap as painless as possible. Since the brake booster, MC, and linkage are all under the dash, I've got to fab up a lot of stuff. I've got Heim joints and some of the bracketry done already. After brakes is the new steering column and building a wiring harness. Then I should be able to swap the cab over.

The Wallet Eater. This pic is a little old but I haven't taken any full view pics in a while. Cab firewall is smoothed, the top is chopped (with a slight forward rake), and the doors are suicided. I'm swapping in a custom made steering column to get all the truck controls up on the stalk (since the dash is completely smooth). Hopefully I can swap the new cab onto the truck some time this summer. We'll see.

You can see more at my truck site

I'm in need of a little more attitude adjustment (as in height) and so am reworking the front crossmember (thanks to captainkaos). Once this is installed, I'll have a couple of inches additional drop, so with the bags inflated I'll have a lower ride height. I'm also planning on some tubular control arms in hopes of resolving some interference issues with the inside lip of the wheels.

I finally got around to working on the bed floor. It has been raised approx. 2.5" to clear the rearend when the suspension is dumped. Base floor is 12 gauge steel as are the flames. Then it gets a spray-in bed liner. Voila.

Thanks for checking out my truck. I'm really wanting to drop a load of money on my truck....but...but....there isn't any. AR TTII's are definitely the way to go, but they're a little high for custom built 20's. I really like what you've been able to accomplish on your truck. I've seen you on the 67-72chevytruck site, and I think that I've absorbed some of your helpful information. Sweet truck!
