The beginnings of my second attempt setting up my control arms. The frame will probably need to be notched for clearance. I'll add tubing to stiffen the frame. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

All the control arm brackets are tacked on and I'm ready to test the flex. There is some binding because two of the brackets on the axle broke off. I have panhard bar brackets and rod ends ordered so hopefully I can figure this out before it gets here. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE...

My upper frame brackets needed to be trimmed to make room for the lower bracket bolts. I took it to work and throw them on the mill. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

Cut off some square tubing from the frame that I had used setting up the new frame rails. Got my control arms setup to just about where I want them. There's not a lot of room between the frame and upper control arms. Good thing the axle is setup up at full bump right now. When I finally get...

Worked on building a core support for the radiator and brackets to bolt the fan to the core support. Started working out where my front control arms are going to go. Kinda jumping around while I figure out how I want to mount the shocks. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

Some parts came in today. An electric fan and radiator. Mocking it up, not sure if I'm gonna keep the radiator, I'm thinking about exchanging it for a 4 core vise the 2 core. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

Just about perfect. The upper bracket needs some to be modified or I'll make a shock hoop to get the bracket in line with the shock Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

One set of seat brackets are ready to go in Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

The front tubes are in but still need some more welding. Made some brackets to mount the grill to. And I think I'll be able to put the stock fenders back on if the suspension lets me. Built a pair of mounting brackets for the driver seat, still have to grind them so they'll fit. The passenger...

Got back to work after a road trip to Michigan to visit family. Test fitting some pieces for the front end of the role cage and took the radiator out which I plan to move to the back window. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

I cut out the old shock mounts on the frame and in the process of grinding off what's left. Added a new piece to the center of the roof and getting ready to add supports. Welded a lot of the joints together. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

Fenders are off. Batteries and battery mount taken out and heater core taken out of the dash. Did some welding on all the joints while I'm trying to figure out I want to tie in the grill to the rear part of the roll cage. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

Second support is ready to get welded in Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

Made some more progress. I welded in a cross member where the rear hoop comes off the B pillar. Finally got the driver side reinforcment finished and ready to weld in. The passenger side still needs a little more until it's ready. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

The c Piller and rear hoop are set up to get tied into each other. Making the notched pieces took a lot longer than expected. My notcher can't quite make that steep of angle angle. I had to finish them by hand. Definitely need to practice nothing by hand. Sent from my XT1585 using WAYALIFE...
