Thanks,

The cage isn't any higher than an exo. I let a bunch of air out of the rear tires to level it some what. Bob has to cut/redrill his rear shackles when it's done, there like 5 feet long  :moon:.

Stopped by last night with a couple of buddies and we all were totally impressed with the work!  I probably should have followed Locktup's advice and angled the back end a little more, but this way I can pile on more sh__  on top of my beer coolers!  Plus, once he mounts my spare on the back it will finish it off.  I am 100% satisfied with the job--it even looks better in person!  Thanks again Locktup!

We're not going to skin the sides, but Jason is going to make a sweet floor out of aluminum diamond plate.

"Later, I learned that even though I engage 4WD my hubs are not automatically locking? Something about manual locking hubs I think. What's manual mean? I need to read a manual to lock them? lol  So I found these neat autolocking hubs and installed them. Sometimes they dont stay locked while I am backing up, but that's fine because I dont have a backup camera to see where Im going (like our RV) so I just simply dont ever back up"- BigMike

Locktup made me see the light--slowly, but surely!  I'm gettin' rid of my stock fuel tank and going with a larger fuel cell.  I'll lose my fuel guage, but oh well!  I finally sold my bed/tire carrier--it's nice to have my trailer back.  That Jason sure does quality/honest work!

I ordered some tasty parts today-30 spline Longfield's and TrailGear high steer with a new box tapped for hydro assist!  I hope to have all parts installed by the the 14th so I can finally go wheelin'.

I will have his truck done Saturday after noon. That will give him a whole week to put those tasty parts on. I would have had it done earlier but someone keeps changing things once Ive built it  :smack:. Wont people ever learn that I AM SOME WHAT OF A BIG DEAL  :rofl2: and let me build. Just Hacking on you Bob. I will post pictures when its done. The Garagemahall looks like a bomb went off so I need to clean it up before I post any pictures.

Toynizzy you are wise beyond your years. Thanks  :beerchug:

It's allot different from what I usually build. Bob had allot of input on how he wanted it, he's was a major pain in the ass  :moon:. Just having fun Bob. I like the way it turned out. It was my first long bed build. Snohmans was a long bed until I chopped it up. Hopefully Bob will have it all painted up so we can get some action shots running the BOX this weekend on the Rubicon  :flamer:.
