Just an update on where Im at. first to Rusty's questions, As for the mini tubs, yes 3" which moved the inside right against the frame. As for the tires yes 295/50R15 on 10" rims with 6.5 bs. as for the rear end perches they move the same 3" as the springs moved. I didnt weld them on until I sat the rear in place and measured to center it inside the wheel wells plus made sure of the angle. And if I remember correctly my spring relocation kit came with new perches how ever you could clean and re use your old ones if you need to.
Now Ive made some progress in the last few weeks. Ive finally gotten the fuel lines underneath done and run up into the engine compartment. I tried to keep the running clean and looking good.
I used a double wall shrink wrap tube for protection going thru the frame.

Then when going up the front engine compartment near the headers I used this heatwrap around the fuel lines.

Here you can see I ran the lines inside the frame connectors.

This last pic shows how I had to loop the return line back into the tank because of rear shock mounts.

Also I was able to make the rear bracket that will house my emergency cutout switch, 2nd solenoid and the fuel pump relay.

And lastly I mounted the radiator over flow. I didnt like this tank at first but I think its going to look really good mounted. I made my bracket from some aluminum c channel and notched out some of the one side to clear the radiator support wall that is not flat.
