I love the dash layout. .Care if I send mine down to ya.. Question... will the way you have the radio/cb angled "outside" of the dash face be a knee knocker for the passenger?
When you decide to quit, THAT is the moment when you would've succeeded..

I didn't like how high I sat with the new seat brackets. My head was a little too close to the top of the roll cage bars. So, I began fabrication of new, shorter seat brackets. They won't have the tumble forward feature like the store bought brackets, but that's OK since I've decided that I won't be installing a back seat. Just as I was starting the finish welding on the first set of seat brackets, my welder kept shutting itself off every time I pulled the trigger. This kept happening repeatedly. This little Miller 130XP is 16 years old with a hell of a lot of wear and tear on it, and having had it in the repair shop a few times, I felt it was time to move on to a new welding machine. I needed a new machine right away, so I bought a Lincoln 180 HD from Home Depot. It's a 220v machine, so its a step up over the 130XP. It should have enough juice to handle anything I need to weld on the Jeep. If I ever need more juice to weld something, I could always borrow my buddy's Miller 210.
