Swapped out the flex plate cause the other one wasn't engaging the start well enough. Picked up some 2/0 welding wire to make some battery cables, new shocks came in i went with the Rancho RS9000KL adjustable.
Beware do not buy a Mercedes diesel 4x4 kit from Koch Enterprises there kits are miss aligned and will damage your transmission and engines. Look up Dooms Day Diesel Joe kits work flawlessly and are backed by real engineer not someone that cuts scrap metal in there basement.
I got mine from Speed Gems, good quality, though I did have to shim the starter slightly, the starter drive would intermittently hit the flywheel while running. Ready to drop mine in once I get the motor mounts made. Right now I have the complete assembly on a stand I built. Also got to figure out how to mount the air starter. I bought the oil pan from Koch, then my credit card promptly got hacked. Their site is not secure, at least when I ordered from them a couple of years ago.
