oh man, nice progress HAH, he can't wait to drive that thing!

[COLOR="#800000"]The more it resembles a Jeep...the faster I want to get it done. Gotta do something about that ride height though! I'm too short to get into it! Maybe a pull-up bar or something. Please excuse me if I don't dismount when someone else has carnage... [/COLOR]

Thats why I like rocker armor with a rub tube sticking out. They work great as a step.

[COLOR="#800000"]Still a LOOONG way away from that. So many details to sew up first.[/COLOR]

More importantly...what is the light scheme going to be??

[COLOR="#800000"]Looking for a RIGID RAINBOW 50" light bar and some 4" strobes at the moment. Might need to install a bigger alternator & battery set-up. [/COLOR]

Have you considered drive shafts yet?

Have you considered drive shafts yet?

[COLOR="#800000"]We were just discussing them last weekend Jason. Any useful insight on that subject or were you just observing that they're non-existent?[/COLOR]

Drive shafts? This will be a gravity repelling levitation Jeep. No wheels OR drive shafts.

Got a bunch of mundane stuff done this weekend. We had a party to attend and booze to drink Saturday so Sunday we was movin real slow. But we installed new CV-type yokes on the outputs of the tcase, new brake lines and mounting tabs, wheel spacers, rebuilt two more shocks (don't get me started here) and a few other little tasks. Next weekend comes the BIG deal... stretching the frame to get 104"WB and cutting the tub to stretch fit the frame. FINALLY he broke down and said yes. I'm as happy as a soon to be bride who's boyfriend finally popped the question. Geezzzz... Cut the damn thing already... Till next weekend, ya'all GFYS.
