Here is the begining of the slider/front bumper/ tube fender design

there will be tubes inbetween the 2 rails...it is just a pain in the ass to draw them all up in the program
Also there is more...I just need to go get more measurements

P.S.

Kelly,
I cut your truck. Sorry.

Justin

:lol:
 
Thats looking awesome!!
 
That cut is exactly what I have in mind for my eventual buggy, looks awesome! I will be paying attention for sure since I want to get a totaled out rig and do this ASAP...too cool!
 
That is really cool........... can't wait to see the finished result.
 
well look me up when you are ready! I'd be more than glad to cut up another one:cool:

oof, outsourcing that kind of work has a pricetag I am not usually comfortable with :)

I may be interested in a crawler box when the time comes though...
 
Here is what she used to look like. In all her glory. I spent too much time working on that thing to have it punked. It was over a year ago and the kid is still in jail. It was amazing what the truck could do, cant imagine when she drops all that weight.

Nice way to salvage a bad situation.. Looks sweet.
 
very nisc build I like it kkep the pics comin
 
wow, way cool. Anxiously awaiting more...
 
well no pics for today(sisters 13th birthday)..sorry guys...I'll be back at it again tomorrow...
Tube bending begins tomorrow:cool: I've got some 18ga that I'm thinking about making the inside panels out of(from behind the d.side front door to the back where it'll be bobbed too) What ya think?
 
Started kinking some tube tonight...
I worked on the d.side slider/fender/thingy
1 piece of tubing...150" long...8 bends(actually 8.5 b/c I had to go back and add a little to one of the bends:doh:)

Tomorrow I'm going to get the outer piece of the slider and hopefully the connectors to the frame rails(d.side)

Hol-ee crap that's alot of bends on one piece of tube... nice work man!

I've done 9 bends with 6 complex bends once...fun

Nasty.

Dont make it too pretty. The white team will be sure to destroy it first time out!

I'm trying to make it so you two can't

badasss !!!!

Here to buy one of those tube benders ?

it's a Pro-tools 105 hd with the air/ hydraulic setup

Yeah for tube fenders! Hopefully mine will be built before too long...

I've got 1 side down..time for round 2
 
Cut and bent again tonight
I cut off some more of the back and started figuring on where to bob it.

The back kick out will have a piece of aluminum diamond plate on top of it for a step
 
Why not cut out the rocker panels while yer at it? That would give you a bit more clearence.
