Well lets see...
I think it needs more triangulation, more bondo, big boy axles, frame plating, bigger tires, and well pretty much anything to keep you busy so i have time to finish first.
Na, it looks great. Im pretty jealous ha, wanna come build me a cage now?
How did the sliders go tonight?

Shawns sliders went smooth! Just gotta mount them, & weld the pinch weld brace on.

For best moisture resistance I always use dura glas. Its a green fiberglass reinforced bondo. Ive put it on and then ran my cj for like 4 years with no paint on it and it never rusted or fell out.
