For those following along, here's a late progress update.
At this point I have replaced nearly every suspension & steering component with new parts.
Buttoned up the front suspension. "Upgraded" the front brakes to the later model (92+up) stuff. They have 1.25" vs 1" thick rotors, and bigger bearings, etc.
Added a Ridetech rear swaybar. I will upgrade the stock front swaybar in the near future.
Finished up the major overhaul of the interior. It still needs lots of a little detail stuff that I will work out as I drive it.
After some debate, I went with 20x8 and 20x10 American Racing Torq Thrust II's. I was considering 18's, but glad I went with the 20's, they fit the look and stance of the truck I was going for.
So here it is, ignore the funny camber/caster, this was just before I took it to the alignment shop
