    Passenger fender installed. But I have no radio. It is really easy to remove the antenna with wire cutters.

    Got everything internally welded and the top plates tacked on, Tommorow I'll jig the pivots in and finish weld everything, then move on to the spindles

    Dam 2"? Full kill huh.

    Yeah I have 5.29 on 33's because I'm don't have the money yet for my 35's. I'm almost not looking forward to it because I already think it's gutless. I do have two spares also which I could drop one if it's needed to shed some weight.
