update time -- well 1st thing i HATE time change I get off work and its dark..
but fridays i get off at noon so i worked good 4 hours or so on it and tomorrow will be even better!
mounted the bumper under the lights were you see the gaps ill take care of that tomorrow, i got cardboard cut outs and made plates and rolled them to go there and yes its not straight try putting on a 150+ pound bumper by yourself..
fuel cell holder mounted, and rear bumper
i also got my rear driveshaft on too but no pics of it..
tomorrow will be steering box, maybe tack on the coil buckets on the axle, notch shock hoops, and really the bed can go on but i got a few kinks to work but i want the cell hooked up before that happens
