I like the bridge on the rear end. Makes mounting the upper links more accurate.

[redyota]

[redyota]

upper bag mounts are in place

Nice work.

I too am from a 4x4 background (guessing from your username) and I also throw way too much steel at my link mounts

 

[CORPO]

I havent been active enough over the last year or so.. have missed this entire build. Looks like some good work. Like the look on your front frame rails.

Keep at it
