Drivers side mock up finished:
Both sides mocked up:
Spent the better part of the day grinding and welding. First one finished:
Welds started looking acceptable:
Both sides finished:
A few cutting wheels lost their lives:
Will give them a shot bedliner on monday, along with the rear bumper, snorkel and swingout...
Also got some wingnuts for the hilift mount:
And a new sticker:

Steel:
-100x40x5mm rectangular tube, 362cm long
-60x60x4mm square tube, 230cm long
-100x6mm flat stock, 180cm long
that was about 140$ for the steel with good conditions...
Bolts, nuts, grinding wheels, welding sticks, etc. where about 60$...
So, I have about 200$ in them so far...
Hopefully we get good wheater on monday so i can bring out the spray gun. Should look great with all the new parts bedlinered instead of rusting...
EDIT:
Yep, i really like this company. They make just the coolest stuff you can buy...

Sprayed all my steel parts and the snorkel with bedliner today. The steel parts wire wheeled:
The snorkel prepped:
Ready for bedliner:
Finished:
I think it came out awesome.
Just don`t be that stupid like me and spray it in the garage without some protection for the garage. It`s some serious mess in there, i think my father is going to kill me...
And of course it started raining when the snorkel was sprayed. But i don`t think that hurts:
Snorkel finished. The scoop is not on it`s place, i just put it on to prevent the snorkel from rain:
Looks naked:
Can`t wait for tomorrow to put those part`s back on, i think it`ll look killer...

Got the sliders finished and took some pics:
Slider detail:
Couldn`t squeeze a bolt through the frame like i planned here, any suggestions on fixing this?

Just can't get it to line up? Have you used a liner punch to try to get it aligned while everything else is loosely installed? You could ream the hole with a drill if you can get one in there.
