Well the Front is pretty much done. BUT i dont have any brakes right now. I have to bleed them. Anyone know the proper procedure to do this? How much does our brake take in fluid? Also i dont think my abs cables are going to be long enough due to the body lift combined with the 12inch rize. I ws trying to pull some slack and got nothing really. Is this going to be bad or what? My emergency brake icon in the dash is lite up as well but theres nothing wrong with it. I even put it on and off and still there. Anythoughts?
Can you say cali lean?

bad ass dude! keep it comin!! Im not a ford guy.. so i have no input on the brake issue!
Truck looks good man. On the drive shaft issue find a good reputable shop and give them the dimensions that they ask for. It is quite simple instead of lugging the truck all the way down their. May take a few days for em to make you one up.
On the brakes disconnect the abs sensor, than reconnect em. After you do that than diconnect the negative battery cable to reset the pcm. Leave the cable off for 5 mins or so and that should clear it.
On bleeding the brakes it will bea two person job. There is no set on how much fluid it takes. It will take as much as needed to get the job doen and have a pedal. First you make sure the screws on the brake lines are all tight. Than you fill the brake resevior up and go to down. Have someone in the truck that will press the pedal to the floor. Go to a brake line and open it up with a wrench while the other person is still pushing down on the pedal. You will than close the screw and let the pedal come up. Do this several times on each one to clear all the air out. DO it one time after you have nothing but fluid coming out of the truck. Than move on to the next one and do the same. Make sure the resevior does not run out of fluid. Or you will not have a succesful attempt at this lol. Looks good man! Hurry up and do the rear and throw on some 46's!

As long as it takes to get all the air outta the system... could be 5 mins.. unlikely... or 30 minutes. Id grab a couple good size bottles of brake fluid.
