    FREE.......stock military Rockwell wheels and tires

    PLEASE come get these! I have no use for them anymore with my new axles. I used them for rollers to get the Scout in the garage. IIRC one has a slow leak but they do all pump up.

    Haha. I agree. Sometimes it isnt possible but I would say most the time it is My protractor came from pro tools JD2 is now making them as well. Cool thing about theirs is they make one for every die and bend radius imaginable. Im really liking having it.

    Thanks Steve! Yup. The idea was to try to shed some weight on the chassis to make up a little bit for the added weight of the new axles. HA! At any rate it should look better and a lot of the ghetto fab I did back there the last 10 years is now gone, even if it does weigh 9000 lbs now

    Next was door bars. I had this piece of tube that was the right length and after setting it in place I thought it was gonna look good. So I put a little kink in it and tacked it in I didn't hate it.....But I didn't love it either. So I left it for the time being and worked on the rear...

    I really contemplated keeping the original A pillars. As you can see them still in the pics. I finally decided to cut them out. Mainly because the passenger side had been repaired after a flop in the tank trap. I did trust the repair but........patch is always a patch. So... This was...

    Test fit The height of the wrap around tube just ended up to be the right height for some reason :D Little rad protection I want to keep the cage height as low as possible and still have a little headroom so after throwing the wife in the back seat (again) I bent up the rear down bars...
