| Been a while since an update. I scraped the radiator idea. Moved the winch in behind the grill for a better aproach angle. Once again SACCO thanks for the hard work the tube is killer.    |

Well i have ran this rig at The crawl spot and some around the house. My major fear was that it would be to top heavy. It is not an issue though. it is very stable and holds its line very well. Overall i am very happy with this rig. Plans are to put in the seats some misc odds and ends (tow strap, high lift, shovel, fire ext, driver, maybe a beer in the cup holder, and what ever else seems to fit in it. Looking at the rules i see i need the taillights to function also. The headlights work now but it shows i need both. That may be a problem as the spare takes up most the rear of the rig. I will try to fit them in somewhere though. Thank you to all who have commented on the build sorry it has taken so long. I think the wrap up is going to go a lil faster though. | |

| I have a little update. Worked on a 4 link plate which almost ended my man cave. Long story short my metal plate that i bought to braze on had shifted without me knowing and i was getting flame onto the wood bench as i was brazing. Before you know it the whole room was full of smoke and i was pouring my cooling bucket onto my work bench. It was more of a superficial wound as the bench is fine lol. I also made up a chain and added some brake lights i hope you like it.      The brake lights are in a weird spot but my thoughts were they would be protected and visible. The spare takes up most of the rear so it made it hard to place them. Let me know maybe someone else can think of a better spot. |
