Nice looking ride, the mods so far look neatly done and should serve you when you hit the trails. You will want to get some good anchor points for tow hooks or D rings and get a good tow/snatch strap. Keep up the good work.

I'm coming a little late to the game, but I want to know how you took the dashboard pad off to paint it! All the threads I have found talk about taking the WHOLE dash off, not just the pad. I had resigned myself to painting mine in place (I'm using the dupli-color for vinyl BTW...works a little better than Fusion for the vinyl parts. Still using Fusion on the plastic though).

Was it easy to get just the pad off the dash? If you could provide some insight, you would be my hero!

I will be posting my build in a couple of weeks. That dash pad is one of the last cosmetic changes I have left.

Thanks in advance for the help.

ok. so first you take off the 3 dash parts under the dash pad. after that is done you have to fold the windshield down to get the dash pad off... there are about 6 or 8 screws holding the dash pad in place... then it just comes off. hope this helps.

Nice! I figured it had to be pretty simple, but I couldn't find a writeup that explained removing just the pad. Thanks for the help!

Big Red

I actually like the bumpers- I'll bet they scare people on the highway!!
Now if I could just find a set like that people would stay off my butt!
