Yesterday I spent a few hours at the painters bolting the box and fenders back onto the frame. When I got home the Mrs. helped get the RTT on. I also screwed up how I ran the wiring for the lights and had to cut the wires. So, today I, once again, soldered up the drivers side lights and...

Strong work! Most impressive.

Thank you! The straps hinges are from Northern Tool. They are the shorter of the two versions. I also purchased the steal bushings for them (come with plastic) from someplace else (the name of which escapes me...some lawn mower place).

Thanks! I pulled it 15 miles back to the paint shop today. He should have everything ready for pick up by Wednesday. I can't wait to see it completed!

Lights are wired, suspension is lubed, light paint spots are identified in frog tape. I'm dragging it back to the painter for touch up. Should have it all complete by mid week if things all go as planned.

The frame is back from the painter and all back together. Tomorrow I will wire the lights.

Interesting.

Looking forward to your review. I have a feeling the Mrs is not going to be fully comfortable as is. So, I'm looking at this or 'sleeponlatex'.

Looks great! Enjoy it!!!

It's been more work (and money) than I ever imagined and this is a pretty simple build. I'm really looking forward to completion now that the end is in sight. Unfortunately the painter had some issues pop up and won't have the frame done by this weekend as he originally thought. I need to get...

Crazy cool!

I also fab'd up a 5# propane bottle mount.

Off to paint come Monday morning. Finishing up some last minute things like 1/2" body lift in case the 31" tires don't work out as planned.

If I ever own another Jeep it will look very much like yours. Very nice!!!!

Today I got the tongue finished up by welding the cooler/H2O rack, jack stand, and safety chain tabs on.

How does the foam you purchased compare to the CVT pad as far as density and comfort are concerned?

Duty called the last two weekends. Not a lot of progress when you're stuck in the middle of the Bob Marshall wilderness. But, it helped pay for the new Tepui Kukanam Ruggidized. Today I was able to skin the other two steps and get the new tongue built. Getting closer. I hope to have it...

I have no idea. I pulled it off and never opened it up. It's from a regular M416. I believe 1966 build.

I have a m416 axle I need to get rid of. Shipping form MT to Ok will probably be a killer though.

Is there a mod or way to fix these pins?
