Cutting the last rock rail bolt off... Marked and ready to cut... The first cut is the deepest Coming off! The angle we're looking at achieving... Some of the tub cut away... The body mount on the left will be cut off, the spacer will be removed and the mount will be moved up and back...The mount on the right will be removed and re-attached to the inner side of the frame. We are pretty much just thinking it out as we move along...it is looking like we are going to get a steeper angle than expected and I'm very happy about that!! Here's a pic of the bumper modified to accept the much bigger Warn Powerplant that we did last week... Malcolm has shit to do tomorrow night so it will be a couple days before we get back to it...

For those that don't know, it's a 2003 with I assume still less than 100000 Km on it!
Too bad I didn't get to cut it up some more! ;D

Look at that Malcolm go!
Its too bad I didn't pay attention to your earlier threads about the sides. I could have given you my old ones that were made from 3/16".

It had a 1" lap on the body. 45 degree down and 3" under the tub. Was only mounted to the body. As with everything on the old jeep it wasn't finished. You can kinda see it in this picture. I didn't take pictures when I was building it. You're more than welcome to have the old ones. They were on a YJ. However I just dug them out and it appears I cut "something" out of one of them. ;D
