Max’s Roxor Build

[Spanky]

Tire rack is cool and it can be a WHEELIE BAR TOO,

BDRAG.

He will need it if he gets that beast to hook up! Looking really nice these days....

Thanks! I’m really proud of how it’s turning out.

I’m feeling pretty comfortable about the Moab deadline now.

Got the back bumper/stinger and half of the fenders painted and mounted now.

I’m no body man but they turned out half way decent. I found a new tool at Home Depot. A flap wheel that wraps all the way around for doing corner edges. It made things so much easier. Just a single skim coat of filler and sanded with 80 and then 150.

2 down 2 to go.

You changed your rock rails...just wondering why? BTW...I like the newer version better.

No change just the camera angle. More worried about function then looks.

Oh, OK...I see it now, my bad. When I glanced at it, it looked like a single pipe, lol. Nevermind.

Welp that’s a wrap.... get it...


This was the last part of what I needed to get done before Moab the grill and doors were warped in gloss black for now until I get the full race wrap printed and stuck before hammers.

I do what to talk a little about this skid plate... the roxor crossmember is WEAK! Mine was so bent the skid plate would not go on with out some serious persuasion.

Once I got it bent back into shape (including using the winch to pull it 1.5 inches back forward) I got the skid plate mounted up. I decided that it would be an awesome addition to put (4) 1/2 bolts into the drop hanger.

This made a huge difference. There is absolutely no flex in the crossmember now. I pit my 3 ton jack under the belly and got all 4 wheels off the ground balanced on the skid plate with no movement of the crossmember. I highly suggest doing this.

yes

 

[Colderweather86]

yes

So did you bend the crossmember before you installed the skid plate, or the tabs bent with it installed?

What's the deal with that Grand Wagoneer in one of your earlier pics?

Originally it was going to be a Cummins swap project on one tons but it drives so good we decided to keep it stock. It’s got a brand new amc 360 in it now.
