Also Picked up a jeep steering shaft which I have not installed yet.

http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forum/g...eap-obs-3.html
From the everything I could find the correct shaft will be one from a 88-96 jeep Cherokee. I picked one up on eBay for around $20 shipped. I should be getting it today and I might try to swap it out when I get off work. I am going to try to take a bunch of pics and make a write up to post here on gmt400 this mod is also only good for the 88-94 guys as the steering shaft changed in the 95+ trucks.

both of these last two pics were taken with the bed just sitting on the frame. Everything lined up and bolted up just fine which was something I was sweating over. I cant stand when the bed is all lop sided or looks like its about to fold into the cab lol.

I put new shocks on the rear this weekend which for anyone wondering 98 s10 2wd 4.3l stock rear shocks work perfect for the Ekstensive rear kit. I got one of my front shocks mounted. Lol. I also threw on a set of billet wiper arms.

Got some more billet in the mail yesterday. I got new tilt lever, hazard switch, and window cranks. I should have some Trenz billet pedals coming this week or early next week.

I am still undecided on the window cranks and might just put the stock ones back on.

Re-wired my compressors using some 4g with and a nice stinger 80amp relay and got rid of the two crappy viair relays I had back there. I brought some of my 4/0 wire to my apt so I can get ready to do the huge 3 (big three doesnt cut it when you have 4/0 wire lol). Finally did something with the big ol 12 gallon tank I bought a while back too.

Heres how it looked after I hit it with a coat of the same paint I used on my truck.

That was just not gonna cut it for me so I took it to the powder coat shop and got it blasted then powder coated candy red metallic.

The pictures do it no justice and it was kinda over cast today too. I hope today is nicer and I will break out the good camera and try to get some better pics of it.

Well I got some free 3/4 MDF from work and just finished measurement and calculations on how to fit my RE Audio SE15 15" sub in my truck lol. I am going to try and get it all cut today at work and assemble it when I get home. Going to go in between the seats and should a little bigger than the factory center console. I am going to carpet it and make a top plate that will be upholstered and padded to use as an arm rest.

Here's some pics of the beast.

I got the box built and put in today. That thing slams in there definitely got some rear window flexing. I had to remove the ARM rests off the seats but I cut a piece of mdf and wrapped it in some gator to make a new ARM rest. I put some small squares of fat mat on all the sides to help with vibrations.
