Ross's Jeep that will take longer than Rob's to build thread...

[foxwar71]

Hooper duper!!! Spent the weekend parking for the Pats game :woohoo: and Anthony (asp) came by today to use my Bridgeport. He had to mill up some stuff for his D300 for his doubler. I did find enough to finish the engine hoop and gussets. The tube gussets on the back drop down to above the shock mounts. Clearance to the valve cover was a little tighter then I was going for. Still have like ~1/2" room, trimmed the cable support bracket too.

Looks awesome duder.

Do your bumps stick up through the cans? You should put some kind of rubber plug if they don't so they don't fill up with crap.

I see all that work and I can't stop thinking about coilovers......

Nope, I plan on finding a plug/cap to fit the top. If you look closely under the fuse/relay/power thingy whatever its name is on the PS, theres already a puddle that frozen into a chunk of ice.

:shhh: Coilovers will go out back next. I just wanna not worry about my sheetmetal inner fenders exploding up front for now.

this is what i'm torn about on my build.. toss 'just enough' reinforcement for the bump cans and FIRI bc when i do go coilovers everthing will be getting chopped up around there anyway, OR reinforce it all to begin so i can essentially "bolt in" coilovers when i'm ready. either way, c/os are WAY down the road for me. i think i might just do something like you did here anyway bc i'll already have a rollcage tied into the front end? idk.

collaborative NAC brain picking this weekend.

I still have no laptop, I'm hoping to get it back from Dundy tonight. I've got a good update coming, don't you worry. If you were friends with me on the fbooks, you'd even get a sneek preview

Ross I wouldn't consider you jacking your jeep up and resting a tire on a stack of wood to really be a "good update."

It drive yet?
