Humvee

I attached one of the rocker panels and kick panels to the partial steel skeleton. I used sheet metal screws to hold them in place when finished I will use rivets.

Shock towers

I drew these a while back and had a friend laser them out for me. I finally got around to welding them out.

Humvee post #6

Today I started cleaning up the front kick panels and removing the broken rivets from the rocker panels.

Body work

I dragged the hmmwv body panels out of storage and started cleaning them up. These are quite filthy and will require extensive cleaning. The panels may look good from a distance but they are quite beat up. I started to straighten out the smaller panels tonight.

Axle pt 39

After I installed the tie rod I noticed that it made contact with the diff cover when the wheels were all full lock when turned left. I removed the cover, heated the area put the small left over piece of DOM on it and pounded on it for quite some time. The next day I cleaned up the cover,  painted it and installed it.

Hood #2

I found another Humvee hood a couple hours from me... so naturally I bought it. The damage on this one should be easier to fix than my other hood.
