And as a side note since I will need my tailgate my bench will remain uncluttered . Mike

Yes the tailgate works great! It's the only space that isn't a foot deep in $h!t all the time! I never get too much stuff stacked on there because I may need to leave in a hurry for some reason. All of my benches are cluttered because I'm a hoarder.

Wow excellent job,

Can you post some videos of it working once all parts are present, how much do you think it will lift?

Thanks, will do. I'm not sure how much it will lift but I think more than the plastic will stand before breaking.

It was much easier than I thought it would be Ben. I say go for it!

Thanks Jason. It makes a difference to have the space and tools for sure. You're not lacking in the skills department so you just need to work on the first two!lol

OK, remember how I basically said in the beginning that I was going to leave it plastic and add aluminum parts as needed? Well forget I said that because I have already started making parts and I haven't done anythng other than pull a few wheelies with it so far.

No, I don't have 3 loaders...Anyone need one of these? Yes, I am aware that I have a problem...

I was proud of myself for being able to make this shape without throwing a tantrum or wasting material.











The easy part is done. Now I have to make the mounts. Once those are done I plan to add a few more details.

Thanks for looking.
