Sweet rig Mossy!!!! If I ever make it out to Tennessee (Mom was born there) I'll look you up and we'll wheel the twins!!!
BTW how'd you seal up the tubes thru the roof and still allow the body to flex and move independent of the frame? Or does it? I've read a lot of people complain about the drastic change and rough ride when they welded their sliders to the frame AND the pinch welds on the body. I was wondering if you noticed the same (granted we're talking sliders and not exo, but the end result should be the same). I like your bravery in your fabrication decisions. A man after my own heart!!!!

They are welded to the roof where they go through, I was gonna try something else but considering its right in the middle of the cab, I didnt want it to leak. There is no way a grommet or caulk would stay sealed with that much movement, and if it did leak it would be filling up the roof and/or pillars. But to be honest, there was a more drastic change when I put in the fror x-member. And it really only vibrates at low idle, other than that I just a creak every now-and-again.
and speakin of bravery, how bout a 2-stage dove-tail keeping the back doors. and a bob.

i wouldnt call a reasonable amount of space and a LIFT not much. Try working out of a 1 car garage in a small townhome. My neighbors think I'm nuts, but at least they don't complain as long as I don't leave a mess outside the garage.
yea I guess your right. I always forget the lift because Im thinking of a brake for thick steel. Or a bigger plasma, atleast one that works.
