Started on the front end, Had to re-do a few things to get better alpha angle on coilovers, so I cut the front frame off and bent up a new one out of tube, also started on the fenders and stinger. some progress picks.
still lots to do, need to bend up some more tube on the front for coilover hoops and get small bumper for the winch.

i'm back to work on tuesday, then when i'm back in February, Baby is due so jeep build will slow down to a crawl, but my goal is to finish for the summer time, I'm hoping August, but depending how my wife recovers and how the baby is doing it might be another year.

Why... that is what I keep asking myself. Kudos on the fab skillz though. I'm a firm believer in plating what is there and stiffing it up. Plate it, cage it, and run it.... Good job though.

This looks like a pretty straight forward project .......... if you have a wild imagination and the skills to back it up.
GREAT JOB. I'm enjoying this thread.
