great build, i am also doing a international pick up, mine is a 55, putting a 454, turbo 400 into it, with a 9 inch ford rear. i plan on putting a 50, threw 56 ford grill on it. as the other guy stated about the tie rod, just get a larger tube, and have the ends threaded as you need them. it will be worth every penny it will cost, let the shop know what you are building, show pics, they will usually give you a break, and help you out. good luck, nice project, keep up the video's, they are great!
just a tiny bit of advise..you might wanna talk to the wyotech guys about how to adapt those tie rod ends. just "JAMMING" the tie rod in is a pretty scary thought! still, good stuff.. nice to see a guy your age just "go for it" good job on adapting new rotors and building the caliper mounts! keep it up!!
the caliper mounts are looking good

What I orginally ment to say was "...and NOT see all your hard work get ruined." Keep up all your hard work.
