| My New Slow Moving Project
Its been a year since I built my last custom built project so I wanted to try it again. Learned a lot from that build so I'm trying my hardest to take my time and do it right. Got some ideas from Mp3ranger's Pagero cage and Pinchflats and Keatow Trail Ranger builds. Thanks guys. [QUOTE] Last edited by LostCrawler; 02-21-2012 at 08:41 AM. |

Doesn't seem to be moving too slowly. Tube work look's good. |

| Re: My New Slow Moving Project Thanks guys for the compliments.I sell cars for a living, and being that it has been slow for 4 years running, I bring my hobby to my work. LOL. Actually that isn't a card holder but just a posted not holder. Unlike the other Sammie builds on this page I am keeping all of the bed.

Oh yeah. Wouldn't that be nice if we all could bring our projects to work. I mean that in a good way.

It's actually kind of sad but I get right much stuff done on my trucks at work.LOL I'd much rather be selling cars to fund my project.

Its a roller. Need to do some more bracing up front I think, still not sure on the style of bumper I want to go with. What I want to do I lack in skills. Don't laugh at my shock mounts, they aren't as pretty as others on here. After staring at the front for 30 mins I think I can pull off a cms. I feel the front needs some adjusting, it sits a tad low. I get a little rub, but I may try a smaller tire out too. |

I've taken a little break from the project to sit back and make sure I'm happy with everything. Last night I worked on mounting the body and painting it. Still a long list of things need to be done. |

Finally had a couple of nights to work on this thing. Added a servo winch mount, grab handles on the A pillar, spare tire mount and the bed. Also got it painted. But forgot the trac bar bracket. But anyways got the front bumper about done just need to figure out how to mount it. |

Got it pretty much done, still need to do some little things but got to drive it last night. Still want to add a dash to hide the electronics looking in. |
