now after looking at the pics, again, I wonder about the botton of the rear window frame is it going to hold the weight of the widow, i know i had issues with my chop, but i cut it 1 1/2 down more, i hope your putting support back under that window.

Thanks for the input and compliments. I will be building supports for the lower window section and going to completely seal off that whole rear end and make a like a trunk lid. That way I can use that area for storage ,without hitting passengers when wheeling, and keep the weather/elements out.

So earlier this week my fuel pump went out. Not all a bad thing, now I have good reason to pull the fuel tank and build my fuel cell. And since I'm there I'll do my remote dual battery set-up and pull the stock dash for my custom one. I guess while I'm doing all this I'll start to build my hy-brid exo/roll cage. All the while this is going on my friend hooked me up with a GM 12 bolt and is trussing it. Oh, and I picked up a set of 35/11.5/15 Pro-Comp tires with black wheels for $200! Geez...It's been crazy here lately.
