Bump

 

Third gen exhaust reroute as well as a cmc




Modifying a ruff stuff specialties 8" truss to fit and 8.4" diff




Pretty stoked I'll be picking up the winch mount plate I designed for the tube bumper I'm building tomorrow

 

I'm interested in all of it.

 

Busy day yesterday. Here's what we did minus some exhaust work as well.



Reworked a previously chopped cab mount yesterday, so his 35's wouldn't run anymore. The way I chop the mounts different than everyone else. It takes longer and is more work, but when we're done it offers the most clearance you can get out of a cab mount short of a relocation.


Before




After









A quick little flag pole mount we whipped up for fun







And a bumper I previously build for stock front fenders notched and plated to allow for front end flex with its new fiberglass fenders

 

Finally a lazy Sunday I could spend fixing little things around the shop and play with some new tools.

Built another one of these 1/2" ar500 silhouette target tow hitch covers for a buddy.

Fixed my welding table vice that some jackass tweaked











Picked up this Whitney press punch. And tested it on some 1/4" material. Pretty nice being able the punch holes is 1/4" cold rolled in less that two seconds






Picked up a new tube not her over the weekend. Time to retire the hf not her I've used for the last 10 years. Using the lathe takes way too long. Pretty stoked, I told myself I wouldn't build another set of sliders till I bought a new notcher( you know what's coming next).






And I also took delivery of this fine specimen. Chevy 3200. Installing a universal mustang II front end with rack and pinion as well as a new steering column.

 

Another cmc tonight

 

Busy weekend

New axles, seals, ecgs needle bearing replacement, and ball joints on first gen.




Bamf shock relocation on a 3rd gen

 

57' chevy 3200. Framerails boxed Mustang II front suspension crossmember installed. Should wrap up the rest of the welding for the coils tomorrow

 

Wrapped up the welding/fitting on the mustang II front end. Just gotta bolt everything up and then I can get back to off-road stuff.

 

Finally back on Tacoma projects. Swing out tire carrier in progress.









After collecting dust in my garage for the last few years finally brought my miller dynasty 200dx back to the shop. Made me realize what a piece of crap the Mac tools tig welder was. Still gotta input my settings and dial myself in, but I've missed tig welding.


Here's some mig welded pivots and brackets with 4130 weld washers added.

Hey boss looking around for sliders for my ACLB taco is it possible to get a quote for a pair.

 

Me waiting for your link build....

 

Tell me about it. I keep getting these jobs that take up my lift. I'm just gonna have to stay off tw for a month to get it done

 

How much for 2 of those flag pole holders?

 

I mostly just made that one as a novelty and have since designed a cheaper simpler flag mount that I will produce a run of, but if someone wants to pay the labor for building a few of those I'll crank them out. I'll shoot you a pm.

 

Thanks man, greatly appreciated. Interested in your simpler flag mount. Yeah the ones in the pic looks like you put a lot of love into those.....lol

 

How much for weld on sliders with a kick out?

 

Pm'd

 

A quick little double scepter can mount I threw together for a swing out i'm working on. Still needs the strap mounts. If I get some more free time I'd love to add a few more details.
