Got highlift

Ok--got the highlift mounts made and welded on. I had to pull the footing off to get it to fit how I wanted it. But its pretty snug and out of the way--and like mine has done--won't get hung up when you go on your side :redneck:

Nicely placed!

You know I am thinkin it looks out of place...*Note to make sure there is enough pait for the High Lift*:haha: :haha:
 
Here is what I did for the highlift foot. I drilled it out to 1/4" and got a 1/4" push pin for easy installation onto the jack

So we finally got the colors figured out. All the tube work will be black and al the sheet metal will be this metalic green

I finally also got all of the sheet metal work done. Since I decided to just lop the stock b-pillars off I didn't like the large holes left behind. So I went and plated them--damn I hate welded to this body---there is damn seam sealer EVERYWHERE and not to mention all the wonderfull smoke I got to inhale..

And I left a little gap where it meets the one skin--keep the darn scin from rattling.

AH man this is coming together nicely, Mike is working through the little stuff likenothing!:awesomework:
 
So the last couple days have been bust ass day.
So I got everything striped off the rig and everything in the tail added and welded..

I got the frame fish plated and the extensions from the tube at the rockers to the frame done. I even got the rock lamps mounts done...

So all thats left is to build something to hold the switch's that will mount to the dash bar. At this point I am going to do a bunch of cleanup work on the tube, turn the rig around and throw some primer on a few places for now adn get the front tube work done.

What are you going to do with the shackle up front?
 
So I got the shop cleaned and re-organized. Then I got the rig turned around and re-set into its "happy" place....
