Man, having the right door key.....priceless.
My old key from the 79 kinda works on my DS door, but that was it. Not being able to roll the gate down from the outside sux.

Think im going to fab up a guard for the locker motor. Anybody got any ideas pics that i may not have seen online. Think im going to do something more like the Slee 80 guard moreso than the typical mini truck style. I want to cross these two.

Really, alot of recent work has just been slack ass clean up left over from the build. Id left it in a state that was 90% off road and 10% DD. That wasn't really the intent of this build. At this point, im in a good headspace. The truck build was back burnered in my cloudy space. Now that im out of the tunnel, i can button up this project to a more acceptable and refined state. Adding the Elocker, so far, has been awesome. Im basically retarded for not doing it way earlier. In fairness, the 42 debacle would have probably been bad for it. None the less, the driveability is night and day. Idk,. The spool apparently made it ride like s*** even going straight. The freeway ride is much improved.

Sorry for long winded nonsense :flipoff2:
