I believe that you can buy a 3500# frame with lighter pads. I should have gone lighter with mine, but they are sweet.

So my Jeep and trailer hit FourWheeler magazine online today. It will also be in the December issue of FourWheeler, which comes out in October...

I had the exact thought and did partial wheel wells. You actually gain quite a bit of space when you include the lid space. Most people dont do is that way as it is harder to build.

Good on/off magnet squares. Good clamps Both are made by strong hand tools THis is made by Lasquare and is simply amazing. I boutght one and the first time I used it I bought two more.

Here are some action picks in Sedona on the crack. The trailer performed awesome.

It was said tongue in cheek. :)

I don't have Instagram, but feel free to post anything you want. The build has more pictures of your stuff and how I mounted it.

Yep. I wanted a convenient place for the handle.

This is who I used. I just measure out what I needed and they made them. http://www.controlcables.com/parking-brake-kits/

In the next couple weeks I am going to take it rock crawling just to test capability.

I did the 3500 lb offroad offset with 2" lift Then I used the 8x6.5 drum brakes for the hub. I got it all from etrailer.

I will. I drove it to Moab Easter Jeep Safari last year before it was totally done, and it was awesome on the road. I am taking it offroad this weekend with some actual weight in it.

I think so. The tube is 3/16. I think we all just over engineer everything we do. My rocksliders are welded to the frame with three pieces of 1/4 inch tube, about 18 inches out, and they handle a 6000lb jeep landing hard on rocks. I think that 3/16 can handle a tire 10 inches out that...

The original build took me about 5 months on this, but it has been sitting since the beginning of the summer. I had about 20 hours of work left to finish it and then it was off to paint and for bedliner. But it is all done. Here is the original build thread...

These jacks are amazing. I cut the mount down quite a little and made a new mounting plate that is directly welded on.

I had a few minor things to be done on this before paint. I driller all the holes for the Rotopax, and a few other items. I got those done this weekend. I finally dropped this thing off to get painted and then have bedliner put in. I should have it back in a couple weeks, and them am done.

I took it to a 3rd party place and it was super simple. They didnt give a crap. For homebuilt if you want to declare a value over $1000 then you need receipts for 50% of what you claim the value is. They checked lights and signals and that was it.

If you are talking about above the tire, then there is enough. There is about 3.75 inches above the top of the tread. According to Timbren, the most their setup compresses is about 2.5 inches. Some pictures it looks deceiving. The edge of the fender has tubing in it, but that is not above...

Here it is all hooked up ready for Moab.

That is a good idea.
