Winch mount is done!

[section525]

Some grille trimmin'

 

[FROADER]

That's going to look sawweeeet!

 

[section525]

Getting there. Notched out the lips with the plasma. Now I just need to cut the sides where it'll mount inside the frame. Or.. should it mount outside the frame? :scratch: Probably inside so I can have the bumper mount on the outside....

 

[section525]

The winch tray is done and bolted in.

Still need to cap the rails, weld the rails, paint, and.. that should be about it.

 

[FROADER]

Look killer

 

[Kirby N.]

Nice Job! I guess there is some info on what happened to your frame, so I guess I will try to find out instead of saying... What the heck happened to your frame?...

 

[Dannyboy]

wat hapend to yer frame?

 

[Four0Sport]

is that a white shepard i see? hmm. nice location for the winch i think it looks good tucked between those frame rail extensions. you could build your bumper of those rails instead of capping them off. just a suggestion though.

 

[Premier]

i think its an explorer body on a 3/4 ton frame or something.. :shrug:

 

[IZwack]

el oh el -- he just sleeved it with that masteeef of a rectangular tube.

 

[Premier]

i swear he did a fram swap or something. guess i was off.

 

[mounty71]

He did do a frame swap, from a 2wd to awd i believe...still an explorer frame. Then did an SAS.

It is a white Shepard and she's for trade. I'm looking for anything of value. :



Yeah, it's a stock frame other than my leaf-mount crossmember and the FJ-40-style extra foot of frame I added. Here is what I was dealing with before the extension.

 

[Four0Sport]

man you cant trade the dog! you could however start breeding him and use the profits to fund explorer builds. man thats a good idea, i need to find a female shepard! i like the cross member you built for the front leafs, looks sturdy

 

[DB_1]

... that should be about it.

Wrong. Then you go wheel it!:

 

[section525]

Frame is capped, shackle mounts installed (1" pin BEEF) and it's painted.


Don't mind the leaves. It's Fall in Chico. What fire hazard?

 

[FROADER]

Dude, that came out fantastic!

 

[section525]

... and its done.

Think I'm ordering the shackles from Telico4x4. 4Wheelparts doesn't have specs for the Milemarker ones on their site. Unless anyone knows...

 

[IZwack]

Nice ... go test it! Pull the F-350 .. from the other side of yo housesefesus!

 

[storlied]

Damn.. that looks.. Perfect.. Very professional.
What rating is that winch anyways?
