We decided to open up the rear fenders to give a bit more room for the 37s. Thought about adding fender flares. Looked at the large ones Man-A-Fre has, also looked at some aluminum flares from Aqualu that you could paint to match. In the end I really wanted to keep some details stock or at least looking stock. So we took about an inch out all the way around.

Attached are the two option we were looking at. I almost decided to go with the Aqualu. But glad we did what we did.

Here are a few photos of the roll cage. Most of it came from Metal Tech with a few customs add ons. The cross bars are bolted in so if we needed to get to the transmission from inside the cruiser we wouldn't have to remove the whole cage, jus the seats and a few bars. Also the rear seat is on a quick release so I can remove that along with the cross bar for the belts pretty fast to allow for a much large cargo space or sleeping.

Don got the front bumper on. Started planning out for the off-road lights and winch.

We also worked on some ideas for the sliders.
Yes, Hank is my brother. I just got back from Alaska with it. Had a blast, worked great

wow, you have one really nice LC. You have to post more photos of it. Looks like one hell of a trip too. I saw photos of the LC on your brothers Instagram page and feel in love with that machine. Incredible.

Here is one more. It got a little beat up but it was worth every scratch and dent it received. Keep posting those pics of your build. Amazing!

Right on. Love that roof top tent. That had to have been a blast.

Thanks. I really wanted to keep the stock look of the 66. Always liked the small details of the older LCs. Don did a great job with dropping LEDs in place of the tail lights and then building a can around them so they wouldn't get beat up from rocks and mud.
Wow! That is an awesome LC!! Proportions look perfect, very nice!

Nice, I'm sure I saw yours as well. 45 long bed or troopy? I might even have a picture of it on my Instagram page. http://instagram.com/cruisershirts
