Finally getting around to building my swing out. Here are a few pics of my progress today. Should have it finished this weekend. I'll get more pics when I'm done

Nice work, good idea using heim joints for the swing. I'm surprised that very few people do. I like your whole rack tube set-up.

Looks well thought out.

Do you have more pics of that rack? That thing looks really nice too.

Holy smokes, I love the rack over the shell, how it is tied into the light guards and rear bumper. Swing out looks great, Everything is awesome. I think you need a thread showing all your awesome fab work.

Thanks for all the kind words, I'll get more pics when I'm done. The reason I chose heim joints is there strong cheep adjustable and require no grease, this is my first time using them on a swing out so I'll let you guys know how they work when I'm done

Looks nice. I have one suggestion, the latch you are using looks to be on the small side. I've used several over the years and only use the 2000lb latches now after seeing too many smaller ones fail. Just my two cents.

Yes they are the mtrs. They replaced km2s. And these hook up better in all conditions! No they are not siped.
