    I think I'm going to get the bumpers powdercoated at some point, possibly during the summer. The pelfrey is off and ready to be painted. Only in some places was the bedliner dry and flaking off, others it was fine. Going to use rust reformer, primer, then bedliner again. Same for the rear bumper when I get that done.

    Hoping to get one set fully welded and ready today and the other tacked together. Rear bumper build starts tomorrow if everything goes as planned.

    OBA completion and rock lights will have to wait for now.

    I figured making these would be a pain but the IFS skid has been 10x as much as I had anticipated. Nick and myself will be the only two with my IFS skid. Trans and t case I will make for others if they want but no more IFS skids. These almost ended up in the trash a few times :eek:

    Lot left over to do next time I'm home.
    -OBA
    -Rock lights
    -Rear bumper
    -T case skids
    -Exhaust reroute
    -Reseal headlights
    -Reseal LED pods, new stainless hardware
    -Re-weld sliders
    -Paint frame


    Plus whatever else I get between now and then.
