Couldn't have done the tube fenders without Wills help and Nicks bender, but Im really happy with how they came out, still need to finish welding them and then paint them.

Finally finished welding the body to the rear tube fenders.. it was good practice for me. Most of the welds look terrible but there was some healthy gaps I had to fill. Painted them as well. Also while welding I managed to catch the inside of my jeep of fire... luckily my dad walked out side and told me haha here are a few pics..

LOL, I caught my Bronco on fire when I was welding the body to the rockers too.

That shit is tough. All of my welds on the body look like shit too.

Small update:
Remove my center console so now the interior is really stripped down and built all my cage tie ins. So Im ready to start bending tube. My plan is A to C, A pillar will land on 2x2 that goes from my rockers to frame and rear C pillar will tie into the rear bumper. Hopefully I will get some stuff done this week other wise I will bolt my stock seat back in for Windrock.

Cage tie ins.. Rear Hard to tell from the picture but it will pass through that hole then hit the bumper at an angle. It should work pretty well I hope
