hell yours should be a breeze. my trucks my daily so i got ALOT to do. overflow/washer box/computer/abs/fuse box. hell im dreading it already but i really hate laying on inner fenders! i wanna be able to destroy my front valance.LOL right now i can barely make it touch the pavement. :( when i do mine ill probably have to take time off work.
as to the battery from what ive heard just move it up towards the radsupport alittle more and just add another brace. looks fairly simple. im not sure if i wanna relocate my batteries or not.

im also looking for like some rubber mat material so i could line the trailer fenders and put straight down to the frame rails to keep the engine bay as clean as posible like stock sealed off. so far i havent seen any material yet.

Yeah that cleaned up nice!

Something to keep in mind also, for those of you like myself that don't like a hood prop and want to use gas strut's, don't raise the inner's so high that they won't clear the strut's when the hood is closed.

i got to do alot of planning before i start cutting anything. first thing i need is some intake tubes and such to delete stock airbox and tuck nicely, new tube overflow tank, most important super wide trailer fenders. im looking at these right now for a real good fit, super wide and priced alright to. the thin ones at tractor supply has locally is the same price :(

got any pics of how yours is for gas shocks? i like the concept since you loose factory springs. id prefer gas shocks over prop.
