The MJ will be getting a full roll cage made from 1.75x.120 DOM. I have 8.5 sticks, with access to 2-3 more. In total I will have access to ~240' of DOM. The MJ is getting a MAJOR chop-job (cab removal/boatsides) and will be re-worked from the radiator back. At this point in time it is completely unsafe to wheel (hard), because if it rolls, the passengers WILL be seriously injured/killed. Both a-pillars are bent, and the cab is beginning to crush in. When I sit in it normally, my shoulder/elbow stick out the side. I also have a pair of suspension seats that I am putting in. 4 point harnesses are going in too.
When the MJ is done, it will be lower, safer, more stable, and more fun. And it will have a winch.
So don't ridicule me yet!!

You should have seen the looks I was getting at the Fall Crawl when Brad & Kazu realized I had no winch. I think they held back

I know they wanted to ditch me in the field if they could LOL
Funny party I was one of only 3 that made it up the steep hill on Elm Street (Kazu, Supazuk & myself) ended up being a non issue

In that case, you can finish working on the 60 coil bucket removal.
