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.

Yeah I have some pic's let me try to find them.

I'm gonna take mine out and prob the pedal on the inside too if its not welded in. I don't think my tire would hit it since I'm only on 20s and spray on tires.

Couple random engine bay shots from yesterday.

I plan on relocating my overflow to the core support, abs delete, more wire loom, and thinking about deleting the cruise or maybe at least temporarily. I am thinking of trying to making the cruise box quick dismountable if possible since its kinda of an eyesore IMO so I could still keep it but take it off when its at a show for a cleaner under hood look.

Looking good. And yeah it's got like 4 bolts that aren't easy to get to.

Made a couple of battery tray support brackets. I am thinking mount one to the fender and one to the core support then run a 3" wide flat bar diagonal across the mounts the attach the tray to that. Should end up in pretty much the same location just about 3-4" closer to the core support. Should I run a vertical support on it too or should this setup sound alright?

These are 3x3x2.5" 1/8" thick steel.
