Cut down stock hood maybe? Hard to picture where you're going with the front end.

I am pinching the front end down to the winch mount in the front. I will cut the hood down and re-skin the frame around the wheels. Thanks for the post I will post more as I get more done. It is a slow project/hobby, not really in a big hurry I am just enjoying the build.

Did a little more work on the front end. Finally got the hood cut down and my lights mounted.

I used 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" angle top and bottom with some 4" flat bar in the middle. That system is mounted to the frame that I have built in that area.

They are lights from a MRAP. Military surplus is a great thing.

When I get a chance to finish up the front I will put some pics up of the bracket. I have a few projects around the house then back on the Jeep project.

A little more work on my jeep. It has been awhile since I the last time I worked on it. I'm building a spare tire holder that drops down from the rear.
