That's just where the hardtop sits I had it propped up so I could do some spot welding I didn't have a way to pull the top all the way off by myself

I see the board under the top now.. But from front to back,at the halfway point, you have that 4" gap. Is that for a purpose? I too have a Jeep.. a '90 Wrangler.I don't have anything that would sit where you have that gap. that's why I ask..

Oh this space ?
It's where the factory soft top bar would fold down into

They will be completely covered eventually , the factory soft top went away a long long time ago

I should be back out working on it next week , next up is stuffing the rear axle in and working on the brakes so I can move it under it's own power . Been busy with our busiest week at work for the year and wedding planning so that's why car stuff has been on the back burner

Well I've also been dealing with maintenance items on the Tahoe getting that thing all up to Snuff for exploring and playing in the snow
Sounds like a plan, I'll be watching for your axle build, I've got to get a couple of 60s going, or at least 44s for the H3, the solid axle swap will have to happen after it's moving around on it's own next month...
I agree with you on playing in the snow..! I had a blast doing reverse donuts, and e brake slides in the "Doom Buggy" caviler last week...! It's this cold, windy air that just shrivels me up.. LOL

Nothing to update been dealing with the tahoe but I did come up with a rear bumper/winch carrier and fender protection that I hope is both functional and fits the overall look of the rig

Well I had to tuck the winch cradle up a little more then I originally planned but it's all tacked together so stage one is done
