Looks like your coming along pretty good. Nice work so far. I like those bumpers. And welcome to STF.

Yes, welcome to the STF Off-Road forum. Looks like you have been busy
I am liking that rear bumper set up, looks tough for sure. Add, some bracing and you are there. Where does it unbolt at? Good job.

Oh engine cage...how I need one. Looks nice, what year?

Good lookin start! And that is a unique rear cage. I love it! Baja's rock!

looks good i am on the other side of the county in thousand oaks.

everything looks good except for one thing, those front coil overs, pull them off and burn them. dont ever put those on your car.

i was using those for mock up . i dont have any thing to put on other than those. you want to donate some used ones?
ADDED NEW PICKS GO CHEK THEM OUT>see link above

Looks good. Are you going to remove the body to fix the pans? or do something else? I like the rear bumper too.

i already done the pans .iam still trying too decide wear i should mount the spare tire and fuel tank. i have a modified fuel tank from t2 and a spun aluminum one. but cant decide wear too put either one of the . ( the package try or over the front end what do you all think ?) iam kind of out of ideas on what to do next. Ive been thinking about fabbing a roof rack. i want too put some 2x2 on the rear and 6 inch over front beam. iam looking for some bj spindles too hack lifted spindles out of .HAS ANY ONE DONE OR HEAR OF ANY ONE DOING THIS ? LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU ALL THINK) other than that iam out of ideas this being my first build and all.
[color=orange]is Thar any thing that you all think iam missing let me know give me ideas.[/color]
THIS IS THE LINK TOO WHAT THE CCAR LOOKED LIKE WHEN I GOT IT (http://www.kodakgallery.com/Slideshow.jsp?&mode=from site&collid=68256560210.53994191310.1202313930008&Conn_speed=1

have you considered gusseting the rear cage? It looks pretty strong with all that welding, but if you got hit by another car, assuming street use, it may be weak from dead on in the middle, as it is bending at all the joints. but at the same time you have so many bars, its probably pretty damn strong to begin with.

i have been kicking around the idea of adding another set of bars going into the cab and tying them in to the lower mount helping support the frame horns. one ting iam going to do isn build some push rod protectors out of some 1 inc 120 wall. and get my skid plates done. i have a pretty good idea of what needs to be done on the back half . the front is my big worry . thanks for the reply.

Bump

who is leatherneck?

Cool cage.. did you fab it.
