I got a little more work done last night, got some of the body pannels done, and am almost finished with the tube work...I also worked out how to mount my links, it articulates well (in my quick test) and all my tubes can stay in place! Here are some pictures...sorry no pictures of it mocked up with the body pannels...maybe ill post some later!









Let me know what you think!

That is going to look so damn good. Have you thought of maybe mounting a 2.2 moab on the back as a "spare"? That'd look neat.

Body panels look great man. Do you plan to level them with body filler and paint them or just strait paint them? If you do it with flat paint it will proably look decent as is, but gloss will look like the ocean.

Hey guys...got a little more done tonight. Started straightening panels with filler...the hood is done, and i think i will let the sides alone...they arent terrible, and im affraid that with all the abuse they will get that the filler would end up looking like crap after a few runs on the rocks. 4link, i threw a 2.2 moab on the cage to see how it looked...it looks cool, but is really small compared to the 40 series moabs i will actually be running on the truck...but i may use it anyway! Oh yeah, i added a scoop to the hood...let me know what you guys think!

Well, I got it all painted, and am starting to put it back together! There are a few things that I will still have to work out, but it is getting closer. Let me know what you guys think!
