I'm right there with you same stage. Waiting to order all my bearings and ball joints and tie rods. Once I get all of those gonna put the front end together. Gotta take my swinger apart and give it a good cleaning and sanding and painting for my axle only think I went cheap on by not having it powder coated still might powder coat it though.
Why chrome on your swinger and how much is the chrome bath costing you if you don't mind me asking? And I also agree so happy the site is back up and running I'm addicted to this site!
