73 K20....crossmember time

Im still alive!

Ive been doing some soul searching and building lol.

The cage is getting close to being done. Im also close to having a shock hoop done...boy those are interesting...

I got my lower shock mounts on too, which let me say...getting the old d60 shock mounts off was a bugger.

I got a jerry rigged harbor freight notcher. Its been worked and actually kicks ass. I see a few small areas for improvement but it just blew through 2 inch dom like no big deal.

The cage is coming out real nice. Pics in the morning. At first id say the cage was good for a roll but now were good for 3 or 4 rolls...not that I want to try but who has control over that. My long term goal would be to tie it to the frame and to add some tube going to the back of the bed. The front is easy to tie to the frame. The back is a little more involved.

Yay a cameo appearance by the truck builder!

It's morning where's my pictures?
 
Getting some nice welds here and there. I got these guys all welded up and I've been doing some shock hoop mock up.

I'm trying to get the stupid window out so I can fully weld the halo and then the uprights to the cage.
