Functional & esthetic

Did you get a weight on that guy?

Not yet, but I’ll definitely get these puppies on a scale before mounting.

Here is the rear with wet paint. Holes for transmission, oil pan, and ujoint zerks. Also beefed up a skid for the transfer case.

I picked up a Hobart handler 190 at the start of this job. Welds are nothing to write home about but definitely getting better.

$1500 later I now have a spare I can count on..... and a trasharoo. My instagram is seak_the_peak_overland, how could I claim to be an overlander without a trasharoo!?!View attachment 1705532

I would love to be able to lay beads like that. Nice work !!!

It’s all in! I’ll probably add another bracket or some bolts in the rear to strengthen the mounting.

I like the oil filter access you did. Nice and clean. Probably the only issue I see is the small access to the drain plugs. They are nice because of protection, but may get spillage onto the rock shields when draining. Doesn't look like a huge project to remove if needed for your PM'ing. Nice work !!!!

Yeah I went back and forth on hole sizes. These are 3” hole now. If it too big of a headache to service I’ll break out the plasma cutter and open them up some more...... which means I get to play with the plasma cutter again!

Nice. You're a good friend to have.

Did you by chance give him your stock bumper? I like the white on graphite.

I did. The Slee was on his and we just swapped. He didnt like the 18 step process to load things in the cargo area.

Nitro UCA’s showed up today. They look very sturdy and well finished.

A hole in the top of the muffler cooked my locker wire harness. New magnaflo tucked nice and tight and removed the resonator for clearance. Not too loud but has a good tone for the 2UZ

Has anyone tried these stop tech rotors? I smoked my last set pretty quickly with this tank. View attachment 1718305

we use stoptech on my dads Sequioa. Works pretty well.

Repairing the locker harness that was roasted by the muffler.
