I posted this over in fabrication too, but you MA folks are my peeps, so you get a special post too!!
First project was a light bar to hold my ghetto eBay fog lights.
I used some 1.5 angle iron and 2" flat iron. Cut the flat iron to the shape of the "drop" in the early model bumpers and welded the angle iron across them. I used super-short (about 1" long) metal "hollow wall" anchors to hold it in place.
Then I got bored and decided to organize the cargo area. I built some storage boxes out of 1/2" particleboard to store all my crap and to house my air setup. I ran out of carpet, but it makes it easier to see the division and how it matches the split in the back seats. The hole that you see in the right-side box in the first picture is where the air compressor intake filter will protrude.

I also got the rebuild kit for the front today. So tomorrow the spare front diff I got last week goes in to get rebuilt with 4.10s and a Detroit TT. Unixxx measure the Dealer 4.10 pinion and I measure the one I got from Spicer/Dana through Reider Racing. They measure the same, which is giving me hope. we'll know soon enough how it turns out.
If the front goes ok, I'm going to drop the jeep off to swap gears and install the ARB in the back axle while it's still attached to the jeep, and have them install the front diff with the new gears. Wish me luck!
I also finished installing the compressor and tank. It's in the pictures above. I have disconnects for the locker and a pressure guage, and a plug for the electric, so I can remove the boxes semi-easily.
And the Mid-Atlantic bonus picture...

. I need something like that for my electronics and those are the best I've seen yet. Nice job. You should make some plans....
