What have you done to your rig today?

Ready for paint. Y’all have any tips for final cleaning? I was just going to wet some towels with brake clean and wipe everything down.

My wife is having an all out war against my free time on the weekends so I snuck in a coat or two while she was preoccupied.

Hell yeah that looks good. My old cj5 was that color.

Getting this welderd cage installed today.

Went together fairly well. I tacked it up then fit the
outer to the interior.

The section behind the seats dictates where the halo goes. The rest really just falls in place.

If you run 2x6 rockers, be aware of where the support is in relation to the bottom of that said first section. If your lucky you can attach the cage right to it.

I trimmed a bit to much on the rear legs. Also made bolt down pads for those supports.

I just have the windshield left. Then axle swap and body trims.

Washed all the pollen off the old 7.3

All fitted and top is back off and welded up. Made the top bolt on also. Will weld the inside structures tomorrow and hopefully rattle canned..
