I took my frame apart and stretched it 4" to give me more room under the hood.

Is that ALL you have got done?!!!






Why, just since you got the steel delivered I have changed the oil in my old truck ... and that's about all ...


Nice work, I am following every update!

I spent the morning helping Tom fix his rusty CJ7, then this afternoon I started on my MB. I cut the body mounts but still have to drill the holes, I finished trimming the back of the tub, and I cut rear frame reinforcements. I also order some feet for the roll cage.
