This will have to suffice as my build thread, partially after the fact. I think the Rhino is starting to gain some coherency all around finally.
My signature block shows both the things I've done and the things I've purchased already, but still have in boxes.
[EDIT: However, as time goes on one sometimes simplifies one's signature line. I've loved the evolution of the LC so far.]
So, in the last few weeks I've removed the flares and insignia, got new tires (BFG KM2 255/85-16) after shredding one of my Treadwright tires, installed the Slee rear diff skid and xfer skid, I relocated the windshield reservoir with the Slee kit, and probably something else I'm forgetting. Oh yeah, CDL and the idle knob too. And just this weekend I taped off and did Herculiner below the windows and a strip on the front of the hood. I'll possibly do the front and rear pillars later and maybe the hood. I plan on at least putting one hood vent in first. BTW, I did Herculiner on the roof over Easter weekend, 2011 and have been happy with that so far.
My pics are on Smugmug so I'll give this a try.
Originally in Aug 2010 in Michigan.
First thing: running boards off!
New shoes! Treadwright 265/75-16
Feb 2011 to Colorado en route to Montana. New door and fender off a 96, plus Slee step sliders and front flaps.
Feb 2011. Stuck in Montana snow - high centered. This is where the plan went from stock LC to built LC and we're still working on that.
