I can only imagine man, you need a GoPro when you take the ole' gal out so we can see how she runs!!

Please tell me that "highway to hell" is on that playlist

Keep up the great work man, that front bumper looks amazing and the hidden bolts for the skid plate is a great idea!

Can't wait for more updates as ususal lol

Idk how I havent found this build until now, luckily I did though, this thing looks like a beast. And I gotta comment on the welds too, those are beautiful. Im a self taught welder but never TIG welded before, MIG works for me.

thanks guys!

USMC> i live in san clemente so I see you Pendleton guys all over! Cant wait to meet up with people when it is done.. give some rides!

Randy> MIG is a great, effective, efficient way to weld. I MIG weld every day for work.

This last weekend:

-stripped and repainted the front bumper
-completely finished the rear bedside mounts
-mounted the shovels

...as far as my spare tire mount, I dont have a solid idea. Either way it goes the concept will involve some machined/cnc parts so it will be a while till I do that.

The only real "fabwork" that needs to be done is the engine cage which will mount the front coilovers and run across the top of the engine to tie each side in.

got dat lambo bedside option! lol.. I drilled out a extra hole on a different angle so you could have the bedsides (driver or pass) locked in this position. Just for laughs. Does not serve any purpose except to be able to see the bedcage and maybe might make changing a spare easier.
