    Lol we see how mine turns out.. Ordered my lights for the bar today, should be here tommorrow and also the hub assy for the stub axle and latch for the spare wheel carrier.. That would bring total cost of the build up to about $380 so far.. That leaves powdercoating and a small amount of flat steel..
    Got the bracket made for the trailer plug today and trying to work out a neat way of welding in some recovery points as well.. Getting there slowly atm Haha
