Looks awesome man. I really like where you’re headed with this. It has got to be awesome to have access to all that equipment.

Looking good so far, only thing I'd be concerned, personally, is those deep notched chassis just to access the skid bolts to links. I'd be scared chassis could bend at those notches...

Got my links machined today. Sandblasted one to compare it to the raw finish. Think I'm leaning towards the raw finish. I'll run them through the tumbler on Monday to see how they come out.

Wasn't happy with the crappy plastic caps on the stock shocks so,ordered some Pro-Line Pro specs. Feel much smoother.

Finally got the body painted. Except for a couple of small things,I can call this done for now. Took it on it's first outing today and,I'll say,I like it. Definitely requires a different driving style than the regular Capra but,it does quite well. I'll update this thread if I make any major changes. Until then,I'm going to enjoy it. |

Who makes those beadlock rings? They are perfect! Also, how much did it cost to have those links machined? |

Got my light bar mounted and wired.On/off is from the radio. Also mounted my hi-lift. Today I made some sliders. The ends are angled and,if you look close,the bottom side is chamfered on 3 sides. Decided to use square stock just to be different. |
