I've ordered the rest of my joints from ballistic. Hopefully the time isn't to long to get those..there is still alot that I can do if those don't come
in but I'd like to get th rear linked so when I tube the rear I know where it all goes..

So I did progress this week so I guess I won't see you at my house Korey...

really the main reason is..the rear is all braced from that main center hoop back..I need to tie it into the front of the truck so if I make a bar go the length of the roof and down through the fender or along fender then tie it into the frame it will brace it all up..

not everyone likes to cut the cab up. plus it protects the cab if you are going to be crawling.

Korey -- ahh mud and trails..we dont have hills here so no real crawling locally.. I will take it upstate and in NC for some minor trails at first then go from there..

Aaron -- gotta keep the pimp hand strong -- yeah the yellow one is mine as well..Im a collector now. I miss it on 37s..I wish I would of kept them and just SASed it..then it would probably be a show truck..

..I mean I still like being all clean and shiny..but if I was going to put that much money into something...why drive it and park it..I want to drive it..sink it, crash it, if I see a ditch and wanna drive down it..damn it Imma drive down it. hah

I got a lot of work done this week..no good pics tho, I got the gas tank mounted, rear shocks mounted..going to start on the front cage..but im going to Vegas for the weekend so no work this weekend..

Also I have ordered a millermatic 212 welder again..1st one Zach ended up with it. so that should help me get the cage and tube welded up..
