 I will certainly be making up for the last 3 weeks of dragging feet and or not meeting certain portions of my goals this week and next that is for sure. Trying to make best use of all my daylight as I can. Its already getting darker closer to 1930hrs which in Vegas time means I lost an hour of daylight already at the end of the day for the season as it changes to cooler temps which will help.

So as I summarized this afternoon as to what the loose itinerary will be. I am going to be doing the following:

  • Digitally document every inch of the frame as is first. Left, right, inside and out and from above and catalog every bolt, nut, bracket, hole used or not used, harness routing, brake lines, fuel lines, everything as it is done for both reference and documentation purposes.
  • Pull the fuel tank
  • Pull driveshaft
  • Pull whats left of the exhaust
  • Pull body and supplement harnesses
  • Pull brake lines and E Brake cable
  • Remove spare tire mount and brackets
  • Remove rear axle and figure out what gear it may be and if it could be open or LSD equipped
  • Remove rear leaf springs
  • Remove front & rear sway bars
  • Remove front TTB as complete left & right units
  • Remove radius arms
  • Removal of all unnecessary items, brackets, OEM silencing materials (bed area / 4 patches of goo on frame rail)


From there I'll see whats left and if i had missed anything that just didn't come to mind mentally just yet or anything obscure.
