The next step is inserting the eyelets and the backing ring.
I used a set of channel locks to fold the tabs over. I used a cloth to keep from scratching the front face of the eyelet.
Here’s a pic of the footman loops I had to add. I had to...
Adding the twist locks is pretty easy. You just layout where you want them along the top lip of the tub and drill your holes. Here’s some pics of the eyelet process (when I am not effing it up).

So during the install of the 7th of 10 twist locks and eyelets, I engaged idiot mode. The block I was using for backing my punch slipped part way through punching this hole. When I picked it up I didn’t pay close enough attention and punched the...

Those rocker protectors are awesome! I was contemplating not putting my steps back on after making the body repairs to my rig, these look like a possible alternative!
I refurbed the windshield frame and got it painted. Put new glass and weatherstrip in as well. I have been working on the soft top install recently. Installed all the footman loops and have been working on the twist locks. In the pic with the...
