Im going to send in money for JOCCI here soon, so i can do more wheeling. Let me know if any wheeling trips are coming up. |

Send me a check for a couple grand and I'll have them done in no time. Just worried about getting some decent tires for this summer and winter. Axles will hopefully be done before spring. Then I have to save for tires and a diesel.

How hard was it taking the doors off? Thinking about taking some time and building some tube doors.

It is pretty easy if you can stay cool and calm. Took me about 15min for each door. Used my dremel and used 2 cut off wheels.

Can you not put yours back on Sam? I havent really looked at them yet to see what needs to be done. But i want to be able to put the doors back on. So i guess that means ill be doing the hard way like Texsun?

Thank you! That looks awsome. And better yet; pretty simple. Definetly going to try and get this done this weekend. Im sending my application for Jocci in here in the next week so i can wheel the next time they go. Do i have to go to a meeting, or can i just send my application in and money? I work second shift so wont be able to go to any meetings.
