Re: D90 from the UK
 
Something totally off topic and I'm unsure were to ask.....does anyone have the dimensions of a quicksand winch? I know there very rare but I'm holding out until I get one! I can make the front mount if I have the dimensions

I am liking the shape and proportions of the tube work. One observation though...it appears the tube work is removable everywhere except where it attached to the front bumper. Am I missing something?

You have a keen eye......the tube work was tacked there to hold it square while I worked on the rest of the cage...I've got some pics from today if fitted front mounts and a winch tray..along with the rear stays for the tray...

Awesome rig Paul!
Those tires are crazy...good kind of crazy!

Re: D90 from the UK
 
awesome rig, when you say cut down a set of 2.2 boggers did you actually cut a chunk out then glue them back together.

Paul 88 08-12-2015 03:14 PM

Re: D90 from the UK
 
Yes the tyres had a biggish chunk taken out of them...there around 5mm taller than stock 1.9 boggers but super phat...if you look you can see the cut line.http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/08...0b8b21481f.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/08...8eac688e66.jpghttp://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/08...5f6880d001.jpg

Awesome build Paul! Great work on that cage!

I love all the UK traybacks in general and especially the Gigglepin Special.

Just asking, did you also check the looks with tall & fat 1.9 tires...?

Anyhow, look very much forward to next posts "thumbsup"
