Varg In Jeep's Clothing

Been there.

 

Underside of the tub is officially done and ready for primer.

I addressed something that I wasn’t sure how to address. I haven’t ever really seen a version of a rock slider on a flat fender that I liked. They just don’t look right IMO with anything tacked to the bottom edge. It just takes away from the look. No offense to anyone who has them; just a personal preference.

Since the framework behind my skins is already a little beefier than stock...



I decided to run an extra support under the lip of the tub made from 1/8” that ties the edge of the body to the 1/8” plate floor.



The outside edge of the body might get dinged up, but it would take quite a hit to collapse it.

On a side note, I’ve lost four grinders in three months. Two of them today. I need to get ordering some brushes and gear sets. I’m down to one grinder left.

 

One step ahead of ya.
Figured that stuff is boring.

 

Nice job on the rockers. It's hard to find a nice idea for sliders. That looks great.

 

I like it

 

Yeh. Something like this hanging from the down spouts

 

aaawwww….cute

 

Have I mentioned how much I hate body work?

 

But you do it so well!

 

I really don’t. I’m almost to the point of throwing the block sander in the trash, smoothing everything over with the DA and calling it done.

 

But we all know you won't, you wouldn't be able to live with yourself, it would haunt you every time you looked at it

 

It wouldn’t bother me one bit.

I’d just have to tune out the voice of the one whom it would bother.

 

I am. That’s the problem. “It’s just going to get eaten anyway.”

It’s just going to get banged up in the woods, so what’s the point.

I think she’s just going to have to deal with it.

 

Happy wife, happy life

 

I’ll settle for slightly irritated wife, slightly irritated life.

 

As much as I hate sanding and painting cabinets?

 

At post 1668 I thought the same thing but I wasn't going to say anything.
