  more progress…
  
  since i was lucky enough to be snowed in today;) i got the time to install my amb connector in my x5 chassis and do some work on land cruiser
  
  i managed to get a decent looking light bar built and install a mounting bracket/screw for the roof rack portion.
  
  needless to say i have more pictures in my album

  looking sweet as dood… what’d you make the roofrack/canopy cage out of? That looks like solder on the corners there… coming along awesome though

  i was supossed to make something else today but i got a great idea and just had to explore it before i moved on to the other thing.
  
  i’ve been asked many times if i’ve made a brush guard or if i plan to, well i did today!
  
  i’m really happy with the way it turned out and i’m still contemplating installing tow hooks….what do you think?
  see HERE there are more pictures added as well;)
