good looking truck.
does your front drive shaft have enough compression? if it doesnt your t case adapter wont be happy.
what kind of slave cylinder is that?

spring shackle angle/length is going to limit the droop a lot
if he corrects that then he will definintely need to address driveshaft slip length

nice truck for sure

What bore master cylinder did you use? and what slave did you use? I have the 7/8 master and the clutch is a bit stiff.

Very nice, I agree with whom ever recommended cross steer should be your next project. Looks like your drag link drops quite a ways to the arm. Lots of folks are diggin it, keep up the good work.
