“Wizard fuel neck” trial fit for the bay tank. Can now be put in the pile of parts ready for paint.

Kafer bar coming together. Another time consuming job with plenty of fabrication. Some critical placement to take into consideration, fuel tank outlet, starter motor and heater pipe clearance being the main items.
The diagonal arms I made from chromoly tube and clevises and tig welded by an engineer in town. Also had him tig the back side of my bump stop pads

Nearly 3 months since an update on my build. There has still been small progress steps but life has gotten in the way the past 8-10 weeks with our house builder going into liquidation, finding new builders, health issues etc.

Hopefully getting back on track now as the weather is improving.

Few progress shots of the 2.5inch narrowed beam I am building.

I designed the end plates and had a local business have them laser cut for me. These were a combination of a couple of end plate designs.

CSP adjusters fitted, new bushes installed for centre pin, welded back on and reamed.

The beam looks killer man , good work

Got some extra motivation back after the weekend in Lorne.

Beam is almost done. Bump stop location moved down slightly to ensure the bump stop contacts with the most amount of surface area. Adjustable steering stops, steering dampener bracket fabricated to almost match an original. Shocks spaced and setup.

Front nose stripped and into epoxy. Also starting to sort out some imperfections on the long panel

[Mid West Dubber]

The sides of the roof had a low spot, assuming part of the stamping process. Light skim of filler to take care of this and some slight warping from welding.

Then a couple of coats of poly primer over the repairs. Blocked. Now have the whole roof into high build primer…

Long panel work continued. Got the bulk of the filler work done and got a good coat of poly primer on. Blocked that and fixed a few minor imperfections then touched up again for another round of blocking.

Now into high build primer…
