[QUOTE="stroyer, post: 233687, member: 4696"] I've been working on this since February, so I'll just post up some pics from the start. As I mentioned in the newbie thread, I'm a big fan of Coleworx and wanted to mimic the Riddler build, so I hope that's taken as a show of respect and not a ripoff. thumb.gif I was going to go with a TJ tub setup, but that has changed as my build progressed. I'll be running the cowl area, hood and grille but rest will be skinned. Since I'm a first timer, I wanted to use a platform to easily build from and keep square. Started with tube laser cut 2x4x1/4 wall frame rails and went from there. Specs below and still acquiring parts. 2003 5.3L (mild cam) Rebuilt TH350 Dana 300 w/ Tera 4:1, twin sticks Front Chevy D60, 5.13's, Detroit Rear 14 Bolt, 5.13's, Full Spool 1.75"x1/8" wall DOM 118" wheelbase, 72" tall, 155" total Length 42x17 Profender 2.5", 16" coilovers, front & rear Profender Airbumps Our Trumpf Tube Laser [IMG]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r152/Jeepinsker/IMAG0140.jpg[/IMG] Click to watch video [URL=http://s143.photobucket.com/albums/r152/Jeepinsker/?action=view¤t=VIDEO0007.mp4][IMG]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r152/Jeepinsker/th_VIDEO0007.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Hex holes are for 3/8" rivnuts used to bolt up flat plate [IMG]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r152/Jeepinsker/IMAG0144.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
