I cant help but ask, what's the butt doing? Any changes there? I know there is minimal weight and all, but, I'd do something before medium or heavy flogging. I would probably want to reinforce the upper A-arm perches, but I like to 3x over-build.

Anyway, looks good. Be something to have fun in!

The rear right now is stock. There will be a bedcage done holding 2 spare tires eventually but for right now it will remain stock because that's alot more money to dump and I still have to finish the front end.
