Thanks you sir!

Time to give a small update on the 72. I haven't done a lot of big picture worthy add ons, but have added or repaired some stuff. Back in February 3 of the studs for the steering block on the D60 sheared off. Luckily it happened at home and not at speed or on the road. I removed that dumb block and installed a chevy steering arm and a Skyjacker drop drag link. Then I added ping tanks for the rear air bags to help with slow down the rise of the bags after hitting big bumps/holes etc. It helped a lot. I also got my grill to radiator support filler panels installed, relocated the battery cable to under the filler panels, and repainted the entire bottom of the truck.

I also finally got my front drive shaft in, but need to finish the t case shifter. This winter I do not plan to drive it. So around November I'm going to rip the turbos off and upgrade them. The super HX40 is laggy and it is time to upgrade that.

I also got the fog lights put in, and wired up my dome lamp. There's still a list a mile long of things I need to add, install, or finish. But I keep using it and driving it, so I do what I can to it.

I've taken it to some shows too. The Corvette even got out of the barn a few times.
