Thanks I finally feel like I'm getting somewhere on it it's been almost a year since I've had any of the body on the frame.

Great progress!
It's always a great feeling when you have more "righty tighty" than "lefty loosey" going on!

No pics today just installed the fresh air vent covers hood release and installed a factory cargo light. And thanks for the support it's keeping me motivated to work on it. I'm aiming to have the drive train back in it and maybe have it runnig if not really close to it by the end of the summer

Did a few more things on it installed the hood cable and vent pulls and e-brake lever and cable. And added a coat of bed liner to the back of the cab and the rockers. And installed the trim on the back of the cab and finished the cargo light. But there are two things I need. I need pics of where the switch for the cargo light mounts and I need seat belt bolts so if any one can help me please do. 
Thanks all for the comments its keeping me motivated to keep moving foward

I can't wait to put it in and run it since it's stroked out to a 4.5.

Noticed in your sig that you're running a dana 20. How's that work with the driver's side front drop axle?
