those doors are wild.cool baja,i noticed that you still had the metal fender on it cool.istill got them on mine in the back,i took front wide fenders cut them just above the light buckets turned them around and put on the back so they would be alot wider.just a thought since you had steel on the front.chad :mrgreen:

By flipping the shift arm, didn't you just reverse your shift pattern?
4th will now be 1st?
Not that it matters, it will make it harder to steal.

allmost done with rad support the top plate is 1/4 in alum it bolts the front bar to the back bar the front bar is welded to the bumper and beam and the back bar is welded to the frame and inside cage bolting the two together acts like a race brace in the middle ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage
