Finally got my 4x4labs rear bumper. I still have to do the side tubes, struts, tire carrier, and ladder.

I have been pretty slow on doing thing and updates on the cruiser. Had fam in town and made a trip to the Big Island and had a blast. Got swingout done and ordered Matching spare. Installed some super tones and such.

I then had to do one of the hardest thing in my entire life. I had to say bye to one of my fur kids. They found a large, inoperable tumor on her liver, she had a high temp and refused to eat or walk.

Finished up the rear bumper and took the to get lined. I have had bead luck with powdercoationg out here so I decided to give it a try. I'm happy with the result.

Been lazy on updates. Finished de smoging the truck. Cats have also been cut out and rear of tail pipe rehung after rear bumper install. Went ahead and did two new o2 sensors as well. Wanted s omthing a little didfeent for my 3rd brake light so I went with a rigid chase. I happy with it. Oh, then a buddy came by and we installed a supercharger on his jeep. I would like one of those now too .

Looks like you got new wheels. Was that your posting on Craigslist selling stock 80 series wheels on Kaneohe side?

The 40 is still a rusty mess, and parked in the back of the garage. It will probably sit for a while, but will be a fun project once we get started on it. We are slowly collecting parts for it. And Mr AlohaJen has decided he wants to learn and do all the welding/metalwork on it, so we need to get a welder and all that stuff now! So it will not be a fast build at all. Your 80 is looking great by the way!!

lol...that thing was a tad bit rusty when I looked. Should be a fun project and a perfect to learn some welding. And thanks....I have a few things left that I want to do and then it will be done for a bit.

Your rig's looking awesome! If I may ask, what did you pay to have that 4x4labs kit shipped out here? Welding is a skill I'd like to learn, I'm envious of your ability to tackle this build!

I think it was about $250-300 to ship it. I split a pallet with another guy shipping some stuff out here. I appreciate it. Everything I know how to do is kinda been a trial and error since I started messing with cars haha...WHat kinda project are you working on?
 
Lol thats my red cruiser. Remember that day thinking that was the cleanest 80 ive seen on island. Immaculate work, keep it up!

Also what shop you go to for paint? oxidation got worse on mine.

I appreciate the compliments! Nice cruiser BTW. I went to Maaco and they did a good job for a fair price. I would deff use them again.

My project is a top end rebuild on a 78 Honda CB750K. After this I hope to source a rear bumper and sliders for my LX450.
