Well, I've done it.....

I need to stay away from here!!!!!
Hadn't really had much interest in the last few years in my 81 2wd 1/2T that I've owned since 85.
Well, after being on here for the last few days (can't work due to rain and wet ground) I was out there doing body work on it all day. Guess I'll go ahead and paint it. (Haven't painted a vehicle in 10 years)

Truck has been lowered 5", frame off, for about 2 years (92-94) new front cap, cowl hood, etc, etc.
Truck was lowered in 86, before dropped spindles (that I knew about anyways) so I had TrailMaster make me some 5" dropped front coils, and to correct caster, I cut out the ball joints and moved them in 5/8". Rear flip is made from 2" flat bar that took about 2 days to get the proper driveshaft angle. (I don't know if they made the 'pinion wedges' back then or not)

Well, I hold all of you responsible (or I'm gonna tell the wife ya'll made me do it!!!)
Thanks for resparking the interest.
Virgil
