Oops sorry, just trying to stick up for freinds.

The progress looks good. By the way I have some leftover blingin' sparkle stickers for when you get a hood on your new ride

Squared up the chassis and tacked in temporary cross bracing. Measured the wheelbase out to 105". Grizzly built some sweet spring mounts at work and we welded them in.

Good looking weld on the spring mount:awesomework: I am however concerned about the outer plate tearing itself out of the tube. I think if you were to plate the front side of it you would lessen the risk of failure. Now I may be wrong with everyone saying everything look's great, but I feel you will have an issue after a few loading cycles.

i really dont think that its that big of a worry but we had the thought of boxing in the sloped side of the mount.
