Builds '93 Fzj-80...Unbreakable Fab

[wngrog]

Why would you work on it with those huge tires on the truck? I always slap some 31s on mine when I have to crawl in and out 200 times a week.

Don't know about the rear hoops. Love the rest of the cage, but I need more to be convinced on that one.

cheers chappy

Way cool
80 series is severy limited by its heaviness and fat assness. Im excited to see what this thing weighs after all the hacking.

It's not bad...I like seeing how things look as I build

in all honesty I have no idea what it'll weigh , just b/c the top isn't all that heavy

lookin good, (although i'm pretty sure the middle hoop is crooked)

i'm with Nolen on the rear hoop, not sure.

Looks like its dying to have the rear "fenders" doved!, but...thats just me

 

[Grade8]

I with Dave on the dovetail. It is begging for it.

 

[35xj]

great minds......






hows school sambo? the buggy? you goin to DPG the 15th?

 

[UNBREAKABLE]

stick around...update coming in about 20 min(new pics, less body, more tube)

 

[Grade8]

U know it Dave! I will be at DPG goofing off most likly. I need to finish the dang buggy. If i could find some more sheet metal to finish 1 peice of the floor then it would be ready for paint. School is awesome man...well everything but the going to class part.

 

[UNBREAKABLE]

this will have a plate on top of it for a fender top/ work area, c02 tank mount

upper center bars

There was some discussion about dovetailing the corners, but the added storage and the increased tire coverage ('cause every little bit helps when controlling the amount of debris coming up behind the rear passengers) provided by the platforms won out.

 

[35xj]

not bad.

 

[chappysfj40]

wicked cool man

The top was also missing most of the glass... In the end you should do a poll like Eskimo did.

I believe Slee's short bus is close to the weight of a stock 80. When I met him at Moab he said it was 5500 lbs.

BTW I like the look of the a$$, sure is original. But then again not everyone gets to cut up an 80.

 

[Tapage]

plan to run a soft top or plexyglas roof ?

BTW awesome !!!!

 

[CreeperSleeper]

Holy crap. I want to do this so bad!!!
