panel is beat up but should be fine once i start tapping on it. lol i hope, as long as the sides turn out. been watching lots of videos on finishing so im still learning.

got my lower close out panels made and positioned, i have them fully welded now too. no photos yet. i have rolled my first side panel, fitted . just need some time to weld and grind. i hate grinding, even using a mask i sneeze etc. so i need to find a better altenative, suggestions appreciated.

love this! i have been watching the local CoPart 10k for a heavy hit Jeep Wrangler, kinda makes the BDMT (big dumb mud truck) avenue seem easier. F350 donor, slam a small block in it and fab the interior. i want to make it stock, as i am planning it to be my retirement jeep lol so i am watching...

Wow looks G8 if I say so myself!

Placed frame on an old trailer that was given to me, the plan is to roll into shop to work on and still be able to move it around. I do not want to block up the shop while I do this plus I enjoy working outside at times . Today was 91 and humid … I am going to install the body mount bolts for...

I personally would check axle ratios, could you have different gears? I’ve had many jeeps and other 4x4s posi lockers welded and only had crow hop on solid gravel or pavement usually loose slick stuff is pretty smooth. If you know the vehicle since new less chance of that , possible limited slip...

So life changes, sold my 04 Rubicon and got a 15 Rubicon Hard Rock , love it so far. also picked up a set of Hard Rock Sliders for the J6 Bucket Build - No Photo but they are new take offs, i have the Gladiator cab trimmed to a rough length now. i will be moving the cab into the garage to start...

Love the use it attitude lol , better than letting it go to waste in a garage somewhere. i have always used mine, and never regretted it until resale time lol.

like where this is going! i have realized i am more of a wanderer than a hardcore person, so i think overlanding is the best option for me lol

Started marking up, drilling out spot welds and cutting cab panel , lot of work but strength and safety are a concern, not to worried about a rear end hit but general safety first. I plan to overlap, and weave the sheet metal into the pillar assembly.

Score! Got a bed and tailgate assembly ! I was wondering if I was going to cut and chop another style box to fit or retro fit a glad bed , decision has been made extend the front 6” good to go lol

3d bumper I am planning to build for my J6.
