My Hemi Build

[kschaefer426]

So I'm fairly new to this site and I've been buying a few parts for my truck and decided I would start a build thread. I am currently in afghanistan so it wont pick up until i get home in july. Im going to be posting pics of everything ive been buying and putting up prices, and then when i get back in july i plan on putting up a few DIY and having my wife take pics while we put everything on the truck. If anyone has any ?'s or requests for pictures please feel free to let me know, also anyone who wants to throw in their opinions or has a few tricks to these installs im more then willing to listen since i havnt done most of these before.

(Im very good friends with the owner of the dodge dealership where im from so he will be closeing down the shop on the weekends when i am home so we can work on the truck in the shop, there will also be one of his mechanics there to make sure im doing everything right....just didnt want you guys thinking i was going to try this without the proper tools or without someone who knows how to do this)

The LSD and Bearing Kit are from Drivetrain America, the TB is from Moes Performance...if i would have known how Matt from Moes deals with his customers I would have got the LSD from him too.
