Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Got it out and down easy money. As luck would have it my brother pulled up after I had it slung just prior to lifting. I have a bunch of machinery slings and shackles from work. Anyway perfectly balanced pick and drove out from under it, eased it down and rolled it right up the driveway.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Finally back at this thing, going to grab the material to finish off the rear upper cage and order my rear bench seat tomarrow, made these tonight after fixing this dudes shock mount. This guy had an east coast toyota truck that lost an upper rear shock mount so I chopped a bolt head off and stuck it to the old mount location so time was limited this evening. Some progress is better than no progress I say. Anywho...b pillar base reinforcement plate.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Thank you. Today I'm planning on removing the top, taking the cage out and top welding all the tubes. I want it done before koh.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
I was unaware there were dot approved for 4 points, I just remembered the ticket I was threatened with in my vw street racer so I figured just in case I should leave them. I was just going to put crow's in it.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
Thank you Andy. I'm going to look into this more. I just remembered that cop telling me " this year came with shoulder a harness and I didn't see one" so if I can find a place to get these I will definately make an effort. Good looking out.

Re: RMC's el hefe build.
So I got this thing removed today, was pretty easy actually. On the floor it looks like an overgrown rhino cage.
