New patches arrived today. These will drop next week. Thanks @Dayman Karate For the decals!!!

 

Very cool. Thank you for your business!

 

Debated doing a top hoop, but I think I’ll pass. Enjoying the weight loss. Truck drives and handles noticeably better without the ARB. Gotta relocate the solenoid, fab some light mounts then prime and paint.

 

That looks good

 

Thanks! I think my wife is going to let me build one for her FJ.

 

How did you bend the tube?

 

Subbed... out of the Calhoun County area

 

Nice

 

The most ghetto way you can- HF 12-ton pipe bender haha. If you bend a little at a time at one inch intervals it won’t kink too bad, but if I had much more than that to do I’d get a real bender.

 

Finally done

 

Looks good are you still planning on putting a hoop on it?

 

I was going to so I’d have a place for the lights, but I think I’ll leave it like this. May gusset the fairlead mount to the tube above though. It would add a fair amount a rigidity and tie everything together.

From AlabamaWX

COLD START: Here are some temperatures across Alabama just before sunrise this morning…

Gadsden 26
Haleyville 27
Black Creek 27
Pell City 28
Scottsboro 28
Muscle Shoals 29
Decatur 29
Trussville 30
Talladega 30
Demopolis 30
Sylacauga 32
Selma 32
Birmingham 33
Huntsville 33
Tuscaloosa 33
Montgomery 36
Anniston 39
Mobile 43
Dothan 48

Look for a nice warm up today… with sunshine in full supply temperatures reach the 60s this afternoon.

REST OF THE WEEK: Dry weather will continue for the rest of the week with a warming trend. The sky will stay sunny tomorrow and Wednesday; we reach the mid 60s tomorrow, and the high Wednesday afternoon will be near 70.

Moisture levels will begin to rise Thursday and Friday, but for now it looks like the upper ridge over the Gulf Coast will keep showers north of Alabama on these two days. The weather will be unseasonably mild with highs in the low to mid 70s both days.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: The ridge weakens, allowing a cold front to approach. The sky will be mostly cloudy Saturday and Sunday, and showers are likely statewide both days. Not a total wash-out, but if you have an event planned outdoors be ready for occasional showers. There will be some instability Saturday over the southern half of the state, so thunder is possible there, but severe storms are not expected. The high Saturday will be in the mid 60s, followed by low 60s Sunday. Some North Alabama communities won’t get out of the 50s Sunday afternoon.

NEXT WEEK: For now most of the week looks dry, with temperatures near or a bit above seasonal averages with highs in the 57-62 degree range. There is a decent chance the weather stays quiet for the Christmas weekend, but a bit too early for a specific forecast. See the Weather Xtreme video for maps, graphics, and more details.



ALABAMA TORNADO: Survey teams determined that a brief EF-0 tornado touched down in Elmore County Friday afternoon (December 10) on the northern side of Albritton Lane, just northeast of Montgomery and southeast of Wetumpka. The parent thunderstorm produced a well defined wall cloud over the eastern part of Montgomery before the brief tornado touched down.

ON THIS DATE IN 1962: A cold wave covered the Deep South; Birmingham’s official low was 1 degree. The day before, on December 12, 1962, the high was only 13 degrees… the lowest maximum temperature on record.

ON THIS DATE IN 1997: A freak cold snap and snowstorm struck parts of northern Mexico left 12 people dead, and the area paralyzed. It snowed in the city of Guadalajara for the first time since 1881, leaving amazed residents to gawk at the white stuff and make snowmen. The temperature plunged to 5 degrees in Chihuahua.
