so for starters its cold, how cold? 33* yep feels like a jeep day,

before i started today


SO what i decided to do is build a shelf for the rear of the jeep to hide things under it, tools and things that cost $$$
so i started with measuring, ended up with 53 x 28, not to bad but it needed to clear 19" for my Jerry can... which happens to be above me window line defeating to whole "no one can see it" idea, so..... um i made it 17.5 high... o well, life goes on

so i set it up...


desided where and how to support it...


cut to help out...


drivers side...

set the rear ones in, and said, hum...


set back and drink some tea...


tried this, and... YES


so finshed, easy





small gap...





thats all for right now...
