All sortsa other crazy stuff, its about to go to the paintshop for a Prowler Yellow paintjob - and I'm building the biggest toolbox I can squeeze into whats left of the back for tools & spare parts.. :)

And... some serious thoughts are goin through my crazy mind about building a full exocage on it too... I've got a BAD design drawn up... just tryin to decide if its worth it...

Its far from done, most of the stuff above is either sitting beside it in my shop, or on the way, etc. But this is pretty much what its gonna end up as... What do you guys think? I'm open for suggestions, criticism (don't be too harsh), etc.!

HMMMMM....I like it:D You may want to think abut running a stiffner off your hoop to the diff on the rear that carries the top links so it doesn't fold over.
