Well ya know I’m used to working at least ten hours a day. Only worked on Wiggums for 6 today so had to finish out in style haha.
Mounted fire extinguishers , 1 on each seat base and fixed headlights and turn signals.
This year's thrash thread has been great to follow. Great fun to watch. Keep at it boys.
Realized my straight up and down bump stops were going to be a problem with leave springs, so cutting them off and adding a bit of angle to help.
Trailer fenders are fabbed up. Still gotta burn them on tomorrow. Started with a 30' long piece of 10"X 10" red iron.
That'll work!
I consider myself very lucky to have access to the resources I do. I asked the owner if I could buy the steel from him, he kinda chuckled and said " No just take whatever you need". I had already priced it from DenCol so I would know what to pay him, Steel has gone way up recently.
It's more like "LAST SECOND THRASH". I've got 10 days to:
Install dash bezel and gauges
Bleed brakes
Bleed power steering
Install seats
Install tailgate
Install front and rear bumpers
Install front grill and lights
Install winch
Install driver side fender
Install inner fenders
Install second battery and wiring
Install hard top
Buy 4 teeny tiny wheels/tires so it will fit on trailer until I get time to modify trailer fenders to drive over
Load up K5 with goodies
Take to Tuttle Creek for trial run
Make any adjustments or modifications after Tuttle Creek trial run
Load onto new trailer
Get butt and other half's butt to Moab
I know as well as you know there will be misc. other things but you get the picture.

LOL they gotta be drive over for the new rig, I can actually pick them up and carry them and i'm kindaI am glad to see that you didn't go for overkill...
umm ..... aged to perfection.
Drive over tank ramps??
I mounted and wired horns today.
That's close, but he didn't make them out of 1/2" plate!
Yeah they are definitely well built and should never need to be replaced.
