I'm a fab guy, but I sell RV's full time too. I'm working on getting a vendor subcription on this site after that I'm hoping I'll be able to talk more about what I can do.
 
Well here it is, the cage is back on and it's all painted up. All that needs to be done is the rear panel and the recievers and small touch up stuff. Tell me what you think, I'm curious to here your opinions.

I don't know what to add that hasn't already been said. Looks awesome. The finished product rocks. Nice work.
 
I was looking at the rear stinger, and was wondering how the spare tire stays in. I don't see any mounts, does it just rest in the stinger?
 
Basically yes! For now it will be held in with a ratchet strap which is more than enough even for long term use, but later once the owner locks in on a tire size I'll fab up a more permanent mount.
 
Very nice nice work. This is similar to what I have pictured in my head for my Blazer. I am just beginning to learn fab work so I will definitely be using your build ups as a guide when I get started on my project. It's refreshing to see such quality workmanship after see some real hack jobs. Keep up the good work.:)
