She looks like a truck again.

Bumper back on and hacked.


Fenders back on. Waiting shafts then I'll figure out what needs hacked.


Rear bumper hacked. Made marker lights that shouldn't break. The 3rd will be my stop. Have to figure out reverse lights that will work in the woods.







Shafts are scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Then I'll build the front up. I have an idea for the frame side track bar mount. 2x2 .250 wall, cut 1 side out and drill 3/4 holes. Mount to the bottom side of the frame. Maybe run 1/4 plate up the outside for a stiffener.


Picked up yesterday.
The 4 door rear shaft to cut down for my new front.
A ford taurus fan to replace the belt driven one.
Another tierod with tighter TRE's. I'll keep the other one in the trailer just incase.
35x14.50x15 Stuckbird spare. It'll live in the back of Mack just incase also.


Plans for this week.
Front axle.
Brake lines for the 8.8.
Track bar.
Maybe DS.

Why did you hack the bumpers so short? Is it so they don't get full of mud, or caught on stuff, or some other reason?

I do rocks mostly. I hacked it so they don't get hung up on stuff.

One day I will have tube bumpers attached to the frame under the fender area. Till then I don't want to catch it on stuff.
