as promised here is the pic with the lights on it  i had a little extra paint from when i did the fenders on the jeep so i hit one side of the trailer to see how it looked, not bad, but i can't wait to get it done. |

kinda, i have decided to do the spring over. john has 3 ssr's 35x10.5x15r's i'm going to use, i just need to buy 1 more rim.
on top of that i am cutting in a vintage cj5 tailgate in the next few weeks, after my steel arives, and i have acsess to a cj7 swing out tire carrier (thanks again to j) i'm going to put on the back to carry the spare.
then i'm going to build a solid removable lid to lock up my cr ap, or be used as a trailer. then herc the inside (along with my heep) and paint the tub to match my heep.
i'm exited about this project, when it's done moab will be closer.

i have the lights, tossed the harness, it was in rough shape but so are the leads comming out of the lights. besides they are 24v lights, they can be reworked but i like the 5 tail lights.

i just need to buy 1 more rim. Mark I have some Bassett 15x8 wheels in my garage... Couple are dented up a little, but I think one is decent. Any should be OK for a spare. You're welcome to one if you want it... Right now they are collecting dust in a corner of my garage. JW |

I thought he wanted to cut and weld stuff? ;D JW |

4.5" grinders are $19.99 at Ocean State Job lot. Of course, you'll need to buy one for each 2 hours of grinding. |
