Hi,

Been hard at it today...

Fitted the thermostat after testing it, job done,can now fill the system.

Finished all the brake lines just need to fill and bleed, but cant find the clips to hold the flexi hoses to the chassis, does any one know where I can get some?

All the calipers, disks, pads are all on, spacers on. Looks better with a wider stance now. ;)
Spacers on front, looks a bit more like it.

Put the grill and lights on to have a look, need to paint it but not sure what colour, think I might go black like the original. Need to get the adjuster screws out for the lights, they are solid.
Silver - black?

Satin black? I think gloss would be a bit too much.

Black. I do like the shape of the black one, flat headlight surrounds, never seen one like that

I agree, satin black looks sweet. I'm so jealous of this truck.
