Well I had planned on Herculining the floor of the YJ this week, but ran into a couple snags; that will need to be addressed before I go forward with the Herc.
Rusty Floor at the drivers side B-pillar... gotta replace this first.
More rusty floor at the drivers side front.
HOWEVER... I was able to get started on the cage this weekend. We started with the B-Pillar, will be working our way to the front and then the back. Concepted and drew up the design in AutoCad and BendTech Pro. This is where we are at with it right now. The entire cage will be 1.75x.120 DOM.
Had hard time getting a couple of the b-pillar bolts out.. resorted to a proven method of extraction.
All stripped down.. Look familiar? Really need to get the waggy springs on the front too.. sitting a little low in the front; but doesn't rub anywhere.
b-pillar plate from Blue Torch Fab with my new b-pillar tacked in. Just using some soft bolts for now; will upgrade hardware upon final install.
Here are some other pics with the driver and passenger A-pillars bent and tacked in.
Lots more to do on it... stay tuned.
