I kinda think the saw and grinder would be cleaner... do you agree?

going to try and get some work done on this over the weekend..
I want to mock up and get the metal into paint asap...

just incase smike was right I pulled the trigger on a new tool that might move the process along..

axle is in the warehouse...
got to figure out when ill be able to throw it under the Jeep..

Band saw came in... opening is a bit smaller than I thought...
might be able to get creative with how I angle it..
either way sliders will get cut next week.. front fenders need to get mocked up so I can get them into paint..

found these the other day....

you can really build a CJ/YJ from a catalog if you had the $$$$$$$$$$$

just from experience...

the taper on the end of those bolts help to thread into the nutserts...

Im sure i could prob use bulk hardware...
but the old ones have been removed and installed so many times with ease... why fuck with it...
