Brown santa delivered my new leaf bushings and high clearance shock mnts. Also finialy replaced my turn signal switch, hood, drivers side door pins and bushings, and other basic needs. Now to start working on disc brake swap. Pics to follow. Working on a new rear bumper, Frt bumper and tube fenders.

 

I was looking in AeroSynch's build that your RE netted you 5.5", or close to it?

 

Sorry for the delayed response but yes in the rear. The frt had to be leveled using a 1 3/4 spacer and removed isolater.
Still working on rear bumper along with a frt bumper too.

 

So did you ever fix that rear window rust? cause I have to same problem..

 

Been a busy summer, work related not play. However here are some recent shots of what I'm currently working on. Rockers are on and finished till tube work can be done. Cut and folded rear quarters, to make way for new rear bumper idea. cut up my old bumper ,capped it and will be adding tube to wrap around for lower quarter protection. Tube flares will run off bumper tube and attach to tube on rockers. All tube will be 1.5 dom. Tube frt. fenders in the works along with frt bumper. Also replaced hood , vented hood for sale BTW.

 

Ya I cleaned it up and repainted it ,but came back. Next spring I am going to remove window to do it the right way. Its really annoying.

 

Heres a couple pics of rockers i found.
Also before pic of another project I need to complete before snow flys. Repaint roof.

 

Started the tube work last night. Still need to add gussets and tie in bars.
Next will be tube for rockers and rear fenders. Then we'll tie it all together with a cage.

Cool! What are you using for the bends?

 

I am using a bender at a shop I help out at from time to time. Owner of the shop built the bender earlier this year and it works great. He has been very generous with his welding abilities too.
All the tube I will be using is 1.5 dom.

 

looking good
