]2eDeYe Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Got a bunch of welding done today. Notched my shock hoops as well. Here is a handy tool. http://www.metalgeek.com/static/cope.pcgi Works like this. A little sawsall action and walla walla. Shock hoop finished, just need to weld it up and gusset the back to the frame. Don't mind the extra sticking out, that will get cut off and capped. Need to grab my shocks tommorow, they will go something like this. Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted March 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 The plan is to have it done before Memorial weekend, that is our annual camping trip. Should have all the bugs worked out by Canby, so I'll be bringing it down for sure. :) 1 Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Thanks Jrock, sometimes it seems like all I do is stare at shit :lol:Pulled the shocks from my Jeep....they were blown. Ordered some rancho 9012's. Once I finish up the frame welding (except for the shock tabs) I'll be putting the front axle together the rest of the way and setting it on the ground. Need to pick up a 720 column and steering links. Then it will just be the timing chain and drive shaft lengthening before I can drive it. Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted March 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2013 Cause this page needs a pic. Got some more welding done today. 1 Quote Link to comment
]2eDeYe Posted March 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 More pics. Shocks came in, will go something like the pics show. I need to make some plates for the upper mount. Started thinking about rocker protection as well, going to tie that into the shock mount and body mounts. Should be strong. Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Look into the trail gear rock sliders pretty generic but they take a beating. Quote Link to comment
