ThunderSquirrel that interior looks fantastic.

goldneagle I kept the portion of the brush guard that I liked. I could have done the entire thing in the same pipe but I liked how it attached and functioned so I kept that part. I wanted to repurpose the original Brush Guard vs completely replace it.

Havok, Yes that is a rubber coupler that connects the two together. (ACE hardware) I don't have the full fording kit, I'm taking it little by little.

Action, Yes it rests on the airlift hoops.I put a non skid rubber pad between the two metals. no rattles and I didn't see a need to bolt it or pin it to the hoops. I guess for added strength in an actual accident I could drill holes and pin the two pieces together. I put it on there primarily so...

This weekend I took my old stock brush guard and turned it into something more stout. I cut what I didn't want off the old one and had some pipe bent. Then I notched out the old one and set the new pipe in.

Looks great

BRob18E You can send me a private message for more details and to discuss a transaction for the bar. Here is how I have it attached.

is there anything inside the B pillar that can come loose and rattle around? when I drive it sounds like a loose bolt is hitting around inside at the top of the pillar. only happens at certain speeds too.

Thanks Another Ahab. I had 3 light bars bent when I made mine. I have 2 left if anyone is interested. 1 5/8" diameter.

Thanks 941038. Yes it is a spray can job. I had never done a satin paint before so I am glad I got the results I did. I will say it looks good from afar, but far from good when up close. but that was my sheer lack of proper surface prep since this paint shows all flaws. for what it is though, it...

The rear canopy/rack is designed to hold my kayak and give the truck a wagon look. I haven't decided what to cover it with. Ambulance top was too tall for my liking and would have required I use just that top. I will either skin it in metal, aluminum or canvas. I need to make sure it functions...

Thanks. I like how it turned out as well. Total cost was about $400. This is a paint and primer in one. It takes some getting used to, so do a test panel. You get one shot because you can't wet sand or buff out this type of paint. The hood is the most difficult. I had never painted with satin...

I had a few days off work so I decided to dig in and paint it satin black. Here are the results.

@AnotherAhab- I enjoy both but prefer the lakes.

RWH you are so right. Most of the "Wisdom" I have has been learned by having to repeat a process after I realized I suck.

I recently ordered an overhead console that came with 2 speakers, an amplifier, an overhead dome light and two additional expansion switches. I then added my own 24v-12V down converter which leads to a fuse box and out to two more switches and a terminal to run some other accessories. This makes...

I will chime in and recommend this paint for the do it yourselfers. I have flat black painted vehicles that literally hold the dust and never stay clean looking. If I were going to paint mine black, I would use this satin black. I have a friend who did this to his scrambler 3 years ago and it...

I've been working on a 3/4 shell for mine. I haven't decided if it will be covered in canvas with roll up sides or fiberglass with side opening windows or steel sheeting. The frame is getting closer though.
