I fixed the pics in your first post and deleted your second, since they were the same pics.
Looks great, I love keeping the COG down low. Awesome trimming job. Not sure how the axles will like those tires, but if you want to run big tires, I'd choose your way over a lift.

nice man i realy like it
the snorkle idea with the intake inside the truck is pretty smart no dust r debris that can clog it
but yeh like jamus said idk how those axles shall like those 36's but i guess only time and wheeling will decide

Thanks guys for the comments. I'm pretty excited to find how it will do in the trails and rocks. as far as flex i've tested that and there is no rubbing in the rear at all, and the front only rubs the cab mount a little bit at full lock. Also I have a pile of spare cv's and front diffs, but when they are all broke I'll probualy do a SAS.

Center of gravity, some call it CG, some COG.

Not sure maybe you saw it running around town, my older brother drives it for me. lol It looks like we both like the same wheels. Like that snorkel, hows that working in that mud back home?

we'll definatly have to do some wheeling when you are in town. I haven't had it in the mud yet I'm really not quite done with it yet but it does do good in the snow.

I'm pretty sure they are the stock 3.42's unless someone changed them before I got it. I did weld the rear end though.

Are you going to gear it lower? I know I may have a set of 3.73s from my 85 back home, i swapped 4.56s into mine. Awww.... The good ol Lincoln Locker, nice.  I'm not sure I think the ring gear is taller in your axles, my rear 10 bolt is like a 7.25" I want to say. Well if ya look in the junk yards I'm pretty sure you could score a set of 4.10s.

I don't plan to regear it . With the 36's it still has plenty of get up and go, but the motor also is punched .030 over with a bigger cam and I think it has a chip in it plus it is a vortec or W motor. With stock tires it beat most Z71's.
