Started a build thread for a new trailer build.

Finished up the cooling system on the 40. Figured it was safe to see if it would fire up and stay running. It did both.

ThTime to go over the frame. Took some damage at Chinsman’s Gultch in Colorado

Thanks to @Zane i found the mandrel bends to get this done.

While I was under the car, saw that the skid plate took some damage. This picture shows the amount it bent.

Decided to try to make my own heat shield, I was looking around for aluminum to use and I found an old turkey fryer pot. So started cutting it up...

Then why did some 3/16 plate to create a double layer heat shield

Found a trick online use a zip tie to mark a perfect circle around a pipe

Replaced front and rear door speakers with the pioneer replacements to keep the stock speaker grilles. I had to remove the “Y” on the rear grilles and the speakers fit with a few mm of clearance. I’m far from an audiophile but the new head unit and new speakers sound great compared to the old busted speakers. I have plenty of the neoprene for the gaskets if anyone local needs some.
