Good luck on the CV swap! I love the look of the styleside bumper. So many trucks (mine included) run a barden bumper I forget how clean those original bumpers look out back!

Looking good.

Well the progress is slow. Saving money, buying parts, doing research, etc. etc.

I've picked up a E303 cam for my 5.0 in the truck.

Today I stopped by summit racing and scored a chrome universal tilt column normally $229 got it for $90.

Also picked up a set of four 20" wheels normally they are $200 each got them for $128 total, that's like $30 each. Score!!!

That's amazing!...was it their scratch and dent sale? I was just in a few weeks ago and had a flyer, but didn't pay much attention. Apparently I should have!
