Find you a $100 jeep and start your project what do you have to loose, and with all the knowledge and info thats available on this forum I dont think you will be stuck for too long.

What do ya'll think about this idea? I'm going to cut all pieces from frame rail and put 7/16 plate on both sides to stiffen frame. Excuse the sorry excuse for the writting in pic.
