I have been wanting to do this for some time now. How do you plan to make the body removable? I looks like the Exo is welded right to the sliders right now.

The cab/hood/bumper will be one unit, bolting onto sliders. Bed/rear bumper will be one unit and also bolt on to sliders. When I am done I'll post pics of how it all goes together. It will be pretty slick
