thanks for the support you guys. i am planning on just taking all the TH stuff and making it a bolt on chassis pretty much. i am going to fab up my own A-arms though because i hate the geometry on the front. SOOOO much axle plunge. i am also going upright shocks too.

i wish it had also, but i thought i could tackle this project, realized i would have had to buy parts and a lot more material that i had thought, and the sad fact, is i really cant work for free, even if i wanted. if i get a lot of interest on this truck, i will for sure hit you up again. i have your number.
