time for some maintenance... headlights are good.... I'm not sure why I didn't buy the right switch when I built it, but now it's right

Are you taking pictures with the first ever digital camera?

I've put all my money that I've made from posting into it.....

seriously though, I'm looking for another, this is my 4th or 5th camera... they don't survive the cold, wet, dusty environment well...

What are your ideas for the actual seating surface? Are you planning for metal seat surfaces, webbing, cushions? Should the seat back pivot bracket be taller to account for your seat surface choice?

I gave up on rear seats in mine, too hard to get in and out of the back.
 
I like it. I’ve been trying to figure out how to put the YJ rear seat I got for free many moons ago in mine, this is helping out a lot with ideas.

metal backing, wire springs under the seat, metal back, foam, high density foam bottom (2 kinds), then some kind of canvas covering...
 
yep, similar to that.... hmm, that gives me fabric ideas...



onward... needed to move this to the other side

done

mount to tailgate... not sure why I carry it because I haven't used it - but alas, prepared and all that stuff

spent a lot of time on other stuff today.... I admit this has become something of a project but getting all my gear resolved, a back seat, and a better spare carrier will be the result and hopefully worth it...
of course there's also the D110 that is coming soon to select blogs... so I need to get this wrapped up.
the end
