Had a stupid idea today to actually remove my cb rack (cage) to fab up a lower windshield spreader bar. It's a stupid idea because the factory torx bolts are stupidly hard to remove for the first time since the jeep was born. Only 1 really gave me a fight though and I had to drill it out some, then pound an Allen socket in it and it finally gave up. I was WAY off my game today so the fit up of the spreader bar SUCKED bad. I did not account enough for my notch or that the notch was tapered as the A pillar bars angle inward. So I had to fill some gaps while welding. The welding went GREAT compared to welding tube inside the jeep. Being able to flip the work over was awesome! I don't think I'll ever weld inside my jeep again other than tacking unless there is NO other option. I tihnk this will be the final addition to the stock cage. All that's left is some more painting tomorrow and a trip to ace to get some new bolts for the cage. 12 more torx bolts off my Jeep YAY!
I think it's looks neat like this!
I was light on the pics cause things were not really going my way and I was frustrated....
Wow this is something!
