Studs, springs, push rods. Also need to upgrade lines and pump on fuel system. I may pull the motor to clean up some oil leaks that happen during winter months, but haven't decided yet.
Well my 97 CCSB has turned in to a every weekend project
So far in the past 3 months of owner ship i have
Replaced rear brakes an hardware
replaced pass rear axle seal
replaced rotted diff cover with 08 aluminum one
replaced rotted rear spring hangers and shackles
Rebuilt a 95 D60(ball joints, u-joints, axle seals, spindle seals/bearings, pinion seal, wheel bearings, calipers, rotors,built a NEW passenger side u-bolt plate)
replaced the BEAT TTB D50 for a D60 and a RSK and SD springs
Pulled the weak stock clutch, replaced it with a new VLAIR organic one w solid flywheel, had the trans rebuilt,put on F350 front yolk, and put on some ****TY fitting MBRP exhaust.
I still need to put in my gauges and mount my F4 DP tuner(have the gauges, pod and tuner)
Also need to rebuild F350 drive shaft.
Add air ride helper bags.
this weekend i also picked up a spotlessly clean short bed, rad support and a pair of fenders that will get painted, along with the rest of the truck. Also sandblast and paint the frame while the truck is tore dwn
Also this weekend while test driving it(300+ miles) i somehow had the heater hose rub thru the idler pulley. Replaced that but the rest of the hoses need to be done.
Really didnt want a project but it will be super nice when done
Also have to neaten up the wiring when I converted to SD valve cover gaskets.

What benefits have you guys noticed from the Fluidamper? When is it really needed in a build?
