This week's work.
About 80% done. Still need to upgrade the battery, wire the winch and install the fog lights. Fog lights are on backorder, and I have been waiting 7 weeks for the OME lift.

Glad to see some good work happening over the winter. Great mix of vehicles in this group. 
Me, I might have to decide which 25 to drive this year.
It's nice to work outside again........................no snow in the sunny south.

we started looking at making the rear shocks work better and the next thing I knew we had the torches out, the rear was on the floor and we were linking it
That is what happened to my Cruiser and now all I have left is a hood, headlight bezel and a ges pedal
(but I would cut up another one in a heart beat for the knowlege gained) Matt

you bastard
It was such a pretty Cruiser too
How's about his for pretty? the UPS Gods left a package on my door step today.... I am working on plumbing the steering at the moment. I am converting the low pressure side to -8 (1/2")and the suction line to -12 (3/4") in an effort to keep the pump alive. also I have machined a piston and top cover to make the res (A PSC 1.5 qt.) into a accumulator of sorts. Now I will be able to steer when I am upside down
Nice.......
Chris, you get the soft top yet?
Matt
Matt

very nice!
you guys got it good. No projects for me . I drive an 80
solid axles front and rear
lockers front and rear
springs are already on top of the axle
no shackles to reverse
no U-bolts to flip
disk brakes all around
has power steering
215k miles and 12 years with no rust or rot
all I get to do is drive the thing

If it weren't for the fact that it weighs 6 bazillion pounds and is the size of an average American house it would be perfect
How has it spent it's life to not have rust?

actually the rust comment was a little exagerated. It's got rust but nothing that creates a problem. It's lived it's whole life in NE.
I'm actually in the middle of a project but it pales in comparison to what you guys do. A common issue with these is the rear axle flexes so much that it bends the sway bar links. So I'm making some HD links using 3/16" stock. Probably will just brake something else.
