That will be a nice place to stand when you are hooking up that new engine!

Hmm, I think I like where this is going...

 

[IDIoit]

it will be nice!
ive always envisioned a custom gnarly bumper for her.
i want pretty much a "destroyer"
gonna incorporate some 8" 1/4 wall steel tubing for storage.
hidden light bar.( i want the light, not the hideousness of a light bar)
covered 12k winch
receiver
obviously 2 recovery points, made from 3/4" steel
using 3/16" and 1/4" diamond plate
and lights off to 45*

caught a case of "writers block" tonight.
may finish the oil cooler, engine mounts, and turbo on the engine tonight.
in lazy mode.

some progress this morning.
started the day off with making an old injector into a leak down test adapter.
drilled it out w/ 3/8 and welded a "spark plug" adapter to it.

im waiting on my light bar to come in to finish it.
i like the extra light, but not the appearance of a stupid light bar
so im gonna hide that in the top part.
hope it goes well.
