I just liked the look a little more. Was going back and forth, looking at other finished projects and how they came out. Still working on a door handle idea. Lots of options. The top is at arm rest level, prob put cup holder at lower spot and door handle on the vert. that sits flush. Like this one. Want to use factory mirrors tho.

Installed new Timkin wheel hub assemblies, front diff fluid change and filled up the T-case from having to reseal it again. I'm so happy I don't have to hear that annoying growling noise anymore
