Thanks,

Yeah, those rollers will get worked I'm sure, at some point I'd like to switch to a rope and flush mount the hawse in the front bumper but that will have to wait for now.

Ok I've been working on some of the front tube work.

wanted the tubes to give maximum tire clearance and be as small as possible (I'll be making some removable "street" tube fenders that will follow these lines later)

This is with the tire 1" past full bump

added the spreaders

From the side

Saweeeeeeet dude! That tube work is looking pretty sweet. I'm kinda jealous, I've had to work late every night for the last four days so I haven't been able to be there. I have to say though, that tube work is lookin pimp!

P.S. The light placement looks awesome.
