Ok so since yesterday was so busy I managed to squeeze in a little bit of udating the Ranger. I got the following either repainted or finally painted, wheels, lugs, sliders, emblems, bumpers, frame and suspension.
Big improvement.

Thanks everyone! I need to make some time to do a complete detail on her, Val I was talking this afternoon about that ans the car too, just need to make the time but with two different work schedules its kinda tuff.
It does clean up nicely!
Well I started builing the next stage of the truck and wouldn't you know I missed one of my measurements when bending up the pipe for the cage now I get to start over.
Just a couple hours work, no biggy tho I found a way to work around it and got it straightened out this afternoon. So tomorrow I should be welding that section on the truck.
So where are the pictures? I like pictures!!!
Well after and depressing run to the junk yard today I did walk out with a few things that will be added to the truck over the summer, I will be adding tube doors to it after the exo is done.
Reason it was a bummer is I had a Dana44 all picked out to get for my SAS that was comple except for the leafs, anyhoots while pulling some beamer parts for the 57 I did not notice the loader moving the 1980 Jeep Cherokee that I was getting the axle from and by the time I got done and headed back to the cherokee it was too late. The guy running the loader just dropped another veihcle right on the roof of it and picking both of them up to put in the crusher. Before I could get his attention he was gone. I did find another one but someone has pulled some of the parts so I will keep seeking another one out. If I don't find one then I will use the one I have on hand, unless someonewants to buy it from me.
Ok, I heard a grinder over the phone today. Where are the pics???
I didn't know you were considering the waggy axles. One of the NAXJA guys has a set of D-44 waggy axles with wheels to keep the same lug pattern all around.

Of ocurse, if you have ABS you have other problems to work around. :(
Guilty about the grinder, I was working on the 57 til Val came home, no pics taken today but I will after I finish this part of the build.
Well yesterday I got the first part of the exo cage welded on to the truck and gusseted too, and know I am out of welding gas so everything is on hold til that is refilled.
Oh these guys are really good about returning the bottle, they know that out of every25-30 bottles at least one come in empty fropm their supplier so they will exchange it no problem.
