Update
Alright, so everything with these trucks takes three times as long as planned. Finally got the cockpit back together with the new additions so here are some update photos.
Hot foot and brake pedal once they are in place and in the truck. Cable to the throttle is not how it is going to live permanently. Going to mess witht he routing a little;
"Loud pedal" doesn't do any good if you don't have any fuel!
Oh yeah, gotta be able to steer the dang thing! Here is the orbital valve for the steering;
And with it mounted in the truck;
Gauges, as they sit now, to keep tabs on everything;
Starting to look like Digger a little bit!
Got the RII light added as well. Trying to figure out how to actually wire up the reverse warning light.....
That's it for now. Hopefully the next round of updates doesn't take another 6 months!

Thanks for the kind words fellas! 
I'll get you pic this weekend of what you are asking about. The link for the swaybar mounts to the back of the lower shock bolt on the custom lower link mounts.
