I like to keep the contrast to a minimum. I like everything to blend. Just my way. Everyone has there ways.

Looks remarkable, the undercoating is fantastic, and hopefully it holds up well. You must be itching to get that on the road.

Here is an update. The project is nearing completion. Just have to bleed the brakes and clean it up. Fired it up on Saturday for the first time in 8 months. Worked through all the issues you will always have with aftermarket parts. It gets very frustrating at times You would be amazed how different it is with a narrowed rear end. Everything is much tighter. Had a bare putting on the emergency brake cable. Here are the last of the pictures before its back on all fours.

Is that brake line tab as close to the coil as it looks?

It was a lot closer before. It was hitting the coil over, so I had to cut it off and relocate higher on the axle tube. All clear now. One of those things you run into when you install aftermarket stuff.
