[QUOTE="FlatlandFSJ, post: 510761, member: 8507"] Back from like page 4...again laughing1 Been tying up all the little loose ends that you never remember til after you think its done :wtflol: The following is in no real order,but most of it has happened in the last couple months besides a couple pics that will get moved back to earlier posts. Every time I go to load it up and take it to the local park I find something that needs to be finished, or I break something wheeling around the house. Cleaning up the front bumper a little bit, chopped off the hard corner and plated it back to the frame. [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/bumper_zpskha5djf1.jpg[/IMG] CardCad is all my shop is outfitted with :****: [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/bumperpattern_zps2b7ay3bq.jpg[/IMG] Starting on the skid, gonna cover it with 1/4" and leave it be. Its close enough to flat...I have to rework this and the xmember at some point, so I just started throwing this together outta scrap/drops. [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/skidplate_zpshmvelh2p.jpg[/IMG] This is what the fenders ended up coming out like after the stretch, turns out that it wasn't quite big enough molaugh The SX on the stock waggy wheels would tuck inside the fenderwell...full rework before long,cause of the TSLs that are almost twice as wide. [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/unnamed_zpssork33qv.jpg[/IMG] Doing a little testing to see if my shock mounts came out right. I'm going to end up changing the frame side mounts to adjust the travel a little eventually, or buy longer shocks and strap them. It came out with a little more up travel then planned for( just cause there is 4.5" of shaft showing doesn't mean the tire moves that far ::) ) Ends up stuffing into the opening pretty hard only using 2" of the 4.5-5" of shaft showing. This is using only maybe 1" up on the shock shaft Ill buy whoever can see what is wrong in this picture a beer eventually :dblthumb: [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/rearpastest_zpsew29icl6.jpg[/IMG] early stage of the rear mounts, toooobe tie-ins to the frame, 1/4" plate "bridge" and tabs.
