Project Brute thing
 
Started this build about a month ago. Using ssd scale trans mounted to a Holmes puller pro. Will be running ssd pro 44 axles and the list will go on. Also will be sporting some Blueline Fabrication metalwork. But here are some pics to enjoy. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c071ee485d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...14f16a3c83.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e31df2b509.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9ba2641877.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f3684bd91d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...451bf14aaf.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d66a3b3bcd.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...0434bcf7ff.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...42270b9721.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...9f35fc00b6.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...f23b4448ce.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...16d493c827.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...610e52f519.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...de18885706.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...480af82812.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b8f9e644e2.jpg

Looks awesome so far. Gotta ask, what wheels are those?

TJ builds are the best! Looking good. Nice touch with the opening hood. Flat fenders are on point. Keep it up.

Thanks man. It's got put on the backburner. Had a customer cage to build. Hope to get back at it soon.

Got caught up on customer builds and decided I didnt like the flat fender look for this build so I changed it up a bit. Pretty happy with the results and direction of the build now. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...4d12b7b5b8.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...fd72c2f0c0.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...df67f08621.jpg

Thanks man. There will be more to come soon. I'm getting ready to switch to night shift and will have more build time with an empty house before work. It felt good to work on my own truck for a change.

That's mean looking.

What were the wheels and rings you originally had on this truck?

Lockedup 1.9 rc adversary with gridlock rings. I still have them and they will go nbn back on but the 4.75's were too tall for the build.

What happened with the first fender set? I need a set just like yours were for a New Bright TJ I'm collecting parts for right now. I'd buy them if you didn't cut them apart to make the second set.

I have not cut them up and still have them. They were made for the nikko tj but my fit a new bright. I have a new bright and can see how they line up

Finished up the passenger side fender and a cross bar along the hood up front. Really liking the way this is going. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...2ed9bf3a06.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0d26e56863.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...b0b7a90900.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1031e7626f.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...550ad41eaf.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...92144eacbb.jpg

It's been a while since an update. 2020 has been a kick in the balls. Bug anyways here is an update. Started on. The main cage and redesigned the rocker skids. Got one done and still have to do the other side but I like it much better. Still struggling on the rear cage portion. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1cc6580c24.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8faec1f037.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...8c4c4a6fa9.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...09424d83b2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9081f2399c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e6365f9aaf.jpg
