Very nice!

Looks real good man. That stainless is pretty baller.

nice job. was welding the stainless difficult?

Thanks guys, welding the stainless was not as bad as I thought.. just a little messy more splatter than with normal mild steel. It seemed to get good penetration though.

Got it mounted up finally today.. pretty happy with how it turned out. Just need to add receiver mount and paint it.

That's slick as hell dude.

This x2

Thanks. Little update. Lengthened my drive shaft and added my receiver to the rear bumper. Primed and painted the bumper. Im going to start working on my rear inner fenders and cage tie-in points next.

Little update:
Painted the rear bumper, finally cut out one side inner fender and was able to flex it out/measure for rear shocks.. here are a couple pictures







Heading up to Nicks tomorrow, was going to start a cage but doubt I will even start that project, just not enough time. Im going to bump some rear fenders out of 1.5" tube hopefully, then rebuild inner fenders and build new shock mounts.

Man, I need a month off from work.

You gonna get to check the cutting off problem?

Finally figured it out.. after replacing the throttle position sensor, coolant temp sensor, and the idle are control and test driving it around Will's farm I thought I had it figured it out, but about an hour into the trail ride at Rausch it started doing the same thing. With Wills help we put in a new crank position sensor that I have had for months.. and I think that was the problem. I wheeled the rest of the day with zero issues.

Excellent!

Needs more pics of sweet tube fenders and shocks

Here are a few pictures I snapped.. New tube fenders, and 14" bilstein 5150s (Thanks Will) in the rear with the shock hoops. Hoops will most likely be temporary until I get a cage built but they work well until that time comes

Some flex pictures using a forklift at Wills farm..




I have about 7" of up travel in the rear compared to the 3-4" I had before..
