Do they fit that nice, or did you have to massage them? They look great.
Thanks Kirk

Hi Kirk,

I did have to massage the area at the quarter panel mount to flatten where the metal is raised at the bumper mounting hole. Basically, I sectioned the mount hump, flattened it, and re-drilled the hole. So putting the bumper on a finished car might mean modding the bumper instead. It is a really nice part.

Thanks! I'm using the S10 master cylinder AC 18M974, tuff stuff booster 2229NC, rod kit 4750, and DSE booster bracket 050302.
This setup would be close to the old DSE kit. The hole in the firewall needs to clearanced in a oval shape for the M/C boot. Links below:

So I'm back at it and I've got the dash cluster loaded with Dakota Digital gauges. I used a heater delete panel and mounted my VA heater controls which I think turned out pretty good. I got the idea for mounting the BIMs on ABS from Mark S.

A couple pics of the dash wiring harness done, cluster installed with disconnects. Steering column, shifter, VA heater, and BIMs wired.
