Any better shots of the front suspension being cycled left and right for clearance?

Opps. Just sawer your request.
Panhard mount side. Full bump. Still some more room.




Driver side. Full bump and panhard just touches upper link rod end.


Guess i throw this one in too. I forgot how cool 3/16 tube is to work with. This 1020 does seem softer than the 4130 of worked with before. Shouldn't be an issue.


Bender I am using, Via Harley a few years ago.
Little Kobalt tube cutter for nice cuts.

Stuff done more

[SAL45]

Yeah!!!!! Looks good! Nice cage work

[2JSC]

Sweet - thanks for the shots. Liking the cage so far.

[Szczerba]

Thanks guys. Chugging along in between other things.

Working my way back to the rear bumper

This is looking damn good!

[Harley]

Looking good Shane! Sorry for getting tied up so much over the last couple weeks!

Am I going to see you in Columbia next weekend?

[Richterat83]

Digging the tube work!!

And SERIOUSLY debating those rails. I don't get full bump with my CMS and panhard setup currently.

Thanks. Loosely basing it on a MarsFab jeepspeed rig.

No worries, this fabrication isn't too bad. I wont be making it the Holmes Event, as I'll be going on vacation a few days before it.

I plan on doing some front under the hood cage work too. About done with the rear spare area. Debating on hacking the stock bumper off or leaving it. I can make some corner body mounts to secure the body.

This chassis is perfect for a custom build and you can see the clearances gained from above pictures.

[STANG KILLA SS]

you had me at tire carrier.

dibs

[Szczerba]

Wow, you're easy to please!

More frame work. Yes, my hood line and b-pillar are different elevations. Noticed that after the fact, I'll just bend the bar from A-B pillar.
Probably overkill.

I wish I could "like" my own post.

Such a fantastic build, I'm very inspired by your tube work. Thanks for sharing! Matt

Thanks. The chassis is pretty straight, relative to my tube work skills but I am getting better with each bend.

[simp]

All I can say is NICE!!!!!!

[pastimesteve]

Shane - I just bought a star. This means I get the Jeep when you're done, right?

Anyway, that looks fantastic already. I'm impressed with the tube work.
