SLOHybrid Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 Yes, but then again, I have tried to tell the DMV to collect my "road use fees" from Caltrans who has taken my tax money and clearly not "used" it yet based on road conditions.

I would add to this funding issue but then we would start a riot. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pedram Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 So I got one more in the bag. I just finished up Nigel's mods today. I fitted the front and rear bumpers to match his 2inch body lift. And since they both are bolted to the frame I would have to modify the new mounting locations. http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06091010.jpg And while I was at it I fixed some issues. http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06095920.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06095931.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06095938.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06095952.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06102709.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06102725.jpgthen to get rid of that annoying hitch hang up I took a cut off wheel and fixed that without taking to much away. http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06102725.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06125457.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06125510.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06125535.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06125654.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Pedram Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Since I don't like Land Rovers front bumper design I upgraded that as well. Only with Nigels approval that is. So here are the upgrades. Using this 1/4 plate as a mounting point was the base of the front. And adding additional support up front for all purposes. Using the two bolts up front wasn't cutting it for me. http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06181415.jpgAnd adding this square tube on top was for the extra height difference.http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06181354.jpgBoxing in the frame is the key herehttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06181404.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06182722.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06185553.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06185600.jpgNeed a smooth surface to mount the bumper on so I had to grind some places flat. http://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06185608.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06185621.jpghttp://i591.photobucket.com/albums/ss353/PedramB33/Fab%20Work/Nigel%20Cowlen/2012-04-06185658.jpgPainted the bumper over night and let it dry.
