And e locker rear? Where are you mounting your compressor? Will it have a storage tank and hose to fill tires or fix flats?

Yes, the elocker is already in the rear. I don't have a compressor yet, but I plan on mounting it under the hood. I don't plan on a storage tank, I can fix flats directly from the compressor (unless I blow a bead, which has never happened to me).

what can I say, the excitement is contagious. This rig might be driving under its own power in the next two weeks. I'm excited.

I usually take my cars to Jiffy Lube to get an inspetion done here in Logan. They do a Hunter brake test and don't even pull the wheel off.

lol, same here. Jiffy Lube is the LAST place I'd take any vehicle for inspection. Maybe you have a lenient jiffy lube. Mine invents rules.

back on topic.
I got the UCAs and OME suspension pulled from the runner last night (thanks for the help Kyle). I just need to swap the UCAs over and we'll be ready to start cutting.

You guys should probably remove the names of your favorite shops that let shaddy stuff pass, this is a public forum after all.

ok, take the inspection talk to another thread. Let's keep this on topic. My build threads get derailed quickly and I want to keep this thread relevant for people who may search it in the future.

8 am - 6 pm. It's going to be snowy outside. That just means we'll get to spend all our efforts on the tubbing.
