Little update. I went from work at mid night to the garage and got my passenger floor, seat swap, and new center console finished. Still have some glassing to do on the floor but pretty happy with it. Will post pics in a lil.

First off nice build, I just finished my 2x6 sliders. The only differences is I cut all the way to the floor pans. I've just about finished my front tube fenders and thought id post to give you some ideas if you haven't already got them figured out... I dont have a tube bender so i got creative! I cut half the tube every 1/4in. ware I needed to bend it then welded the cuts back up. The fenders did get some support just mounted some 1/8 steel to the back of the fender to the inner fender. I can stand on them... so they hold 170+lbs

It is actually a smittybuilt lock box for a wrangler. My local surplus had it for sale brand new for 35$. I searched it online real fast an seen they go for about 90$. Figured I could find a way to make it fit and so far I'm happy with it. Just need to enclose the shifter and 4x4 lever to pretty everything up.
