Thanks to everyone for the complements. The bumper that is on there is just a temporary fix for a couple of months while i save up the money to get the stuff to make a stinger bumper. As for a roofrack, well...ive been wanting one for a while, but so far, ive had several other things that needed my money...that may come sometime this summer.
I also introduced the idea of getting a welded diff for the rear to my dad this weekend. He asked if it was "kinda like posi-traction" and i said "well...yes and no..." He used to have a 67 chevelle SS396 in his teen years with positraction. Spun it into a tree at a very high rate of speed cause the positrac kicked in halfway through a turn. He isnt crazy about it, but it'll grow on him... -J <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Looks good Jordan, I like the round eye look <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
Just tell your Dad that the welded diff will never "kick in" unexpectedly. It's the model of consistency <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Haha, Andre, thats pretty much exactly how i told him. I told him that auto-lockers are more like positrac, and that there is no knowing when your diff is gonna lock. Its just locked all the time, no if's ands or but's about it. I dont know whether that helped matters or not... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> -J <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
