SurfInferno's Build

got more work done

 

about 16 1/2. my problem was i have about another 2 inchs of shaft travel before it was fully extended so we just strapped the axle about an inch or so higher when the wheels still spin free to compensate the strap stretching.

 

that sounds about the same as me, I'm pulling 18.5in from axle to full bump but my shock is only pulling 14.5 out of 16in figuring out where to strap it is going to be my next step/purchase after glass

 

So you just moved the stock front hanger? Or did you just leave it in the stock location?

 

Kept the stock location for the front hanger, but moved the rear up a few inches.

 

Subb'd for cage build

 

x2

 

The point of no return...Caging before front LT because I have the time before the guy who is doing it can do it, and so I can barge it hard and not have to worry as much about it once it is full LT

 

you are a smart man.

 

So I did a little work today, most of the day was spent getting the front window out and organizing things. But got the cab off the body mounts and cut down to the frame in the rear, and just the rear seat frame out.

 

Some serious shenanigans going on in here

 

finished the rear mounts for the cage

 

So stoked on how the first and hardest bend came out, wasnt easy but I did it

 

Sweet man!

 

Badass dude! Are you going to cut holes in the cab or let the cage drop in front to get the welds on the top/backside?

 

Looks damned good!

 

I cut holes in the cab, going to plate over them once I have the a and b pillars bent

 

A/B pillers are in

 

making progress on the cage! Put a seat back in to check if i fit in it and i still have a lot of clearance, now I just need to tie everything together and gusset
