making my 5 a 6

Man I would take those tires if you were closer....

 

tarry no problem dude
I ran Armstong TruTracs for my first 2 years ....almost 20 years ago

I also Like the tube part of yours but then its just more sticking out ,,,,,for me I like going where it's super tight stuff. and I can't run square stuff like you cause I run fenderwell headers and I need the room

 

Hey Steve, I restored the pics of my full spool to Posi's Do Over. Post #206. I'm working on getting all the pics back up.

 

Steve,

Still like to see more of your winch / bumper mount up front looks interesting.............are there pictures somewhere else?

 

ok, dentist appointment cancelled and filled up the bottle of argon $127 ouch!
going to melt all the metal together tomorrow, no more tacks this is it !
pics tomorrow night .

 

Very recently I was unable to follow an LJ up an obstacle due to WB. This thread has me thinkin'...

 

yup thats exactly why I'm building this rig , my buds are a solid axle Tacoma and a modded early bronco . I was getting in alot of possible trouble with the shorty .

 

My nieghbors son sometimes takes his crew cab, long bed, 4x4, 1 ton diesel pickup out on trail runs.
His wheels don't fit in any of the holes others have dug in the trail.
Tight corners sort of suck for him.

 

That must be (I hope) a very large Argon bottle.

 

yeh , I can bearly lift it onto the cart.
it's the tall one

 

Why not a CO2/ argon mix

 

sorry yup mixed gas , this is the 200 cuft tank

 

fitted the bumper I picked up for $20 and it fits the doved body perfect just need to oval the holes to fit the 27"c to c factory frame holes .


melting metal
first had to weld top ps mount then weld in bottom mount the bumper then perches .2hrs me and a buddy

 

Dang. That is a SCORE for $20. Looking real good, Steve!

 

Hey Steve, there's a spider on your Jeep! Dittos on the rear bumper. That's probably a third of the cost of the metal to make it. Front bumper looks great too. Looking forward to thrashing through the Rubicon with you.

 

Looking really good! At times I wished I had gone this route instead of how I did, but there is allways time to build another! Hopefully I'll be able to check this out on the rubicon run if I can make it.

Looks good, Steve.

 

for everyone!!!!!
thanks guys


I agree john just those clevis mounts would cost $40.

 

Hey Steve,
Been a long while since I was on the site. Stumbled across your build.....wow great project and good progress. I will be watching this build for sure.
