Got a good look in the daylight today...this is gonna be fun to play with. Gonna lift the front about 3” to match the rear and get some more tire clearance. It was set low on the coilovers to get into the builders garage at home. Then get it aligned, get the AC finished then get it registered and get some shake down miles on it.
It’s a 2004 cab and frame with 58k miles. Full 2016 body and interior conversion with a 2005 common rail Cummins swap. The suspension work is obvious. It’s riding on 24x14’s with 37x13.50’s

I roughed in the alignment and got a 10 mile shakedown drive on it this morning. I think it’s gonna be a good time.

Based on the thread title, I was hoping you had the new brake kit installed!

I've checked a few sources and they have said end of this month for new calipers.
Tasca said they would be shipping to dealers on the 5th or 6th of this month...so hopefully they were on the list to get some.

All finished and drove her home tonight. Well...close to finished. Waiting on a painted gate handle and I have some interior stuff to clean up. Alignment and tint tomorrow and then to a friends shop to charge the AC for this Texas heat. 15436BCE-5B0F-403C-89A6-49868F9DD207.jpeg 1F29E171-BBBB-4AD7-B956-31FB87015977.jpeg C9C66F27-8571-4610-AE92-CB0DEC48D531.jpeg

Very Nice Unbroken. Looks like we have the same taste. I have a 17 f250. Not near the amount of work done that you have. I also have a couple of two wheel toys!! Great looking truck man.
