This is awesome!! Don't know how I missed it!! That rear axle is sick! Tell us about it please.
How is the replacement grill shell fitting?
I appreciate it. Yeah it's a pretty nice piece. Moser M9, 35 spline, wilwood 13in big brake kit, all the bells and whistles.
The grill shell that I bought for this truck fits perfect. The replacement Filler strip that goes under it that I got from lmc was about 1.75" short per side. Luckily I found one in good shape and was able to use it
I got this housing without shock mounts installed because I didn't want to use the factory mounting points, with the truck so low the shocks were almost flat and bottomed out quite a bit. Even with the belltech shocks that came with the kit. The spring perches just had a Tack on them to essentially locate center and I set the pinion angle last night and welded the perches up and threw a coat of paint on it for now

Got all the studs installed in the housing and got the center section installed and set in the truck. I also put the leaf spring bushings burned out and the aluminum bushings in for the caltrac bars.

I've ran everything went in smoothly as it should, however I've got some issues with the rear calipers clearance with the rotor. It's has the shorter caliper spacer but the caliper is literally resting on the rotor. It can't be shimmed because it would just exaggerate the problem, so I'm waiting to hear back from Moser and Wilwood because they told me not to mill the spacer they sent. More updates tomorrow.
