[QUOTE=mtparker97;662511]thanks pat i sure hope so. i would kill to do a chop top.



Then get the saw out and start cutting. lol I did mine in less than an hour. It's still needing some work but the cut was easy.

I plan on cleaning it up with some sheet metel caps on the edges. I'm also going to do some tube fenders once I get the new axles under it. I have a build thread going on here now. Check it out when you can.

added a stinger look-a-like. had the pieces laying around from an old wrangler mall crawler bumper and hacked them up and slapped it on. mainly wanted to see if i liked the look and i kinda do. so down the road i plan on making a real one out of DOM.
