Thanks it's been some trial and a lot of error. I am trying to resist the urge to rush through it to get it done, then not be happy with it. There's a lot of good info from other members builds on here that helps out alot

Well being that I don't drink anymore I figured I'd stay home and work on the truck some. So what better way to bring in the new year than with a small update. I got Russ's steps and John's stacks mounted. I also am using Paul/Russ's stack relocation brackets. Russ sugessted using 1/8 in flat stock to mount the steps. After trying to figure out how to get the heigth of the step right, the answer was in front of me with the stack relocation bkt. I drilled 2 holes to mount the flat stock to the frame, then drilled two lines of vertical holes in it and filed the parts in between to give me 2 long holes so when I mounted the steps tho the flat stock it gives me the ability to adjust the heigth of the steps. Also got Steve's a/c's mounted

Small update. I made a set of fuel tanks andot them mounted. Had to make a small adjustment to the sleeper to have enough clearance for the stacks.

Let me know what you guys think

Coming along very nicely. All the body work and tanks look great.
