well looking at what Travis and Lynn got going makes me want to rethink alot of this truck so, with some of the newer parts out I am going to redo the frame rails and re look at the front winch as well as rear suspension and of course rims and tires. Then the part that still is baffelling me is the dual winch on the rear cause I want this to have 3 working winches. so over time when I can work on this I will have to do some up dates.

Merritt, 1 of the reasons I chose the soft top version is that I don't think I could compete with yours The rear winches are an ongoing concern of mine also. No problem getting a winch for the front but the 2 rear winches so close together is going to be a tuff nut to crack. Plus they are suppose to be run off of a PTO which I don't see happening on my version!!

Lynn, I agree the rear winches are probably the hardest part. The other main thing I need to fix is the spacers on the rear wheel because they are so far out the ones I made the tires are not very stable. Will have to see how you do yours.

Merritt, I am making the wheel spacers out of steel 12mm hex rod.
