Yes, Chris Geiger (now works at Trail Gear), I think?, did a full write-up on it when he did his a few years ago. (Yellow flatbed eventually exo'ed?) I don't remember where I read it though. Here, PBB, maybe even 4 Wheel & Off Road mag? My memory is, uh, what was I saying...


Anyway, iirc, he cut out the offending metal like you have and welded in some new stuff out of the way. I don't remember if he used the old metal and added to it or what. Seems like he was running 37's. It made a lasting impression on me. We were all just kids back then... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
