@Ranger_Danger_ Thank you! I'm going to need all the luck I can get.

@blacko6xlt: I'm going to keep that diff cover in mind. I've got a hard time swallowing 150+ for a just a cover.

That said, I have parts! Main mount bracket, caliper bracket, and anti moan bracket with all the bolts+nuts.

The harness you see is to help me out with the doors. I pulled the entire harness out of a power door, so hopefully no splicing needed. The other half of that is where it goes in the truck. Unfortunately it's not as easy as it looked previously.

The door harness plugs into another medium sized hardness  that runs under the carpet to god knows where, one wire goes to the emergency brake switch, and then it leads to that great big plug you see which connects to the main dash harness.

I'll need to figure out what wires are for the new power options and run them as needed, tossing the rest to the side. The passenger side is ready to go, and I have the relay box all populated, so all I should need to do is run a few wires to that big ol' plug and call it good.

I had to just about take the dash out entirely to get to it. All the gold bolts had to go, and I had to disconnect the steering shaft as well as the e-brake release to get myself enough room to work.

I also took off the e brake itself so I could remove the harness I needed. Three bolts and it was out of the way. I didn't remove the cable. That said, it was a bear to work with. May not be so hard when I'm in a warm garage and not so crowded.

Now, I generally don't like to say how much I paid for things, but I have to share this. I got that entire harness and all that brake hardware for less than $20! Closer to $11. That's what I call a deal!
