I think I finally finished capping all the sections in the frame. Added some fish plating to the inside of the frame by the engine.
Bump broke some pieces of 3/16 to finish the front of the frame. Ordered a second small griffin fluid cooler to use as an engine oil cooler and got that mounted.

My dad came back for another few days and we got a lot done. He painted all the interior panels at home and fixed the fiberglass fenders.
We got everything mounted in the dash. The shifter mount done. The intake in. Figured out power steering hoses and got the resi and oil filter mounted. Shock resi mounts. Seat belt eyelets. Front sway bar done. Skid plates. And more I’m sure.

Just a couple hours today. Neighbor kid has been coming over a lot and been a huge help. He’s getting better and I can turn him lose on easy projects so I can focus on other stuff. When you need 2 resivor mounts per shock it gets expensive to buy. So cut some on the cnc and had him bump break and shape them on some tubing to fit. Turned out good
We got the jack mount done. I welded some of the resi mounts. Got the shocks and all the coolers off and the last 3 skid plate tabs on (they went in the triangle corners of the subframe and got nuts welded in)
I’m making a strong push to get a lot of tabs and stuff done tomorrow and hopefully paint it this weekend. Next up is the carrier bearing mount, driveshaft loop tabs, and some more miscellaneous tabs then pull the motor and start pulling the axles.
