Race truck to 1 ton crawler explorer build

[DangerRay]

Taking up space in the garage, just trying to get it so I can roll it out and finish some other stuff that is more a priority

Dont make fun of the cage was made using up left over stuff, its not the prettiest but will do the job.

Totally thought that broom was a weird part of the cage lol

Thanks, It's a redneck left over part build but will be fun, I cut out sheet metal from a 94 Ranger Hood today and made a roof panel to block the sun. I changed out cut and clamped extend stock style fuel line, to my 1 peice custom line so the connections are good and shouldn't be able to blow apart. I added D ring taps to the front today, I'm figuring out a way to mount my Hi lift jack and a spare tire, hub/lockout to rear.

I have the 4.56 rear all done, other than topping off fluid and bleeding brakes.

Next weekend Saturday it will be out playing on the trails all day. Hopefully.

Few updated photos, rear installed.

Roof from old ranger hood. LOL

Working on swapping front ttb with 4.56s, Aussie, Spicer 5-760xx u joints with full circlips.

As always stuff seems to take forever, we did get passenger side seat 5 point harness installed last night, I got the front carrier modded to drain oil from bottom bolt, installed Aussie locker

Tonight goal, get 3rd member mounted,
Hopefully real good start on rebuilding axle shafts with full circlips.

We have some really wet weather here so trip to small offroad park this weekend is likely canceled, but some local wheeling on farm should be fine.

Tried out all the new goodies this weekend on the farm. It's alot of fun!!
