MiniSimp's 1985

[Cheesemaker]

Nice!    I can't wait till I can order one!  I love the fact that Marlin's is very open, to help keep good airflow to the radiator. 

[MiniSimp]

well it isn't doing much good on you kitchen floor, is it?

Yeah yeah.

Thats some nice Mini!

Hell yeah!

I'm not much worried about that, but I do like how the winch is protected....

[MiniSimp]

As a matter of fact....

MiniMini just finished test fitting it.

Couldn't get the back 2 tab holes to line up, so I'm going to have to enlarge/slot those holes when I take it off.

Thanks to OldYellerCJ for crashing my truck in to the back of a Cherokee and making the bolt alignment super easy.

I could not get them to line up on my non-wrecked 85 either. Maybe its an 85 thing? I do not know.

That almost looks too good for the truck!

[Duffil]

you know, just to screw with people, dont cut that zip tie until you HAVE to...

hey bro have you ever used that before? Have you read the instruction booklet?

[Tool Pimp]

Deffinetly, can't wait to get it painted and winch mounted!

[skipnrocks]

[MiniSimp]

Here are some more pictures that I was too lazy to wait for to download

[KDXSR5]

Do you have them in now though?

Nope, I am going to worry about it when I get a winch put on. Right now I think the 6 bolts are sufficient.
