Michaels's Discovery

Yes we still have the skidplates for both D1 and D2, we had a run a while back that didn't look to good. This was the last of them.
 
timmy if it rains saturday i may be tempted to drive to hutnsville and help you put all that and your new suspension on! i'll be in birmingham anyways so it won't be that much of a drive!
 
Hah it is supposed to rain here all weekend. Sucks big time.

so the parent's say. i'll be getting out the tarp again like i did last spring when i started building the first bumper. if you're game come on down again. i'll be up early and working on it all day sunday as well.
 
trim. trim. trim.

finally done with that low-hanging shovel of a trailer hitch. i'm keeping it for the odd opportunity that i will ever tow the sea doos around. this hitch is for recovery only. i may add some weld on chain rings if i ever see the need but i doubt i will... dad creeped into my shot.

it was getting dark and i didn't feel like focusing on my pictures. i might take some photos of the bracing underneath and the 40 pounts of steel i added to beef this thign up. there is no way in hell this thing will ever budge.

EDIT: and yes i put a turn down on the exhaust. it dumps just before the frame brace.
 
There are two things I really like about your Discovery.

1. You use it on the trail - a lot.
2. You are willing to do all of your own work and even some hand-built projects.

Nicely done :D
