    You're not kidding! Especially when your wife works weekends and you have to play Mr. Mom every weekend. Really limits the Bronco time. And now with number two on the way, I'm going to have even less Bronco time.

        Wait until they get older, their activities will take over your free time. That and voluteering at school and summer camp(s). But it is all Good, so many parents spend no time with their kids...

        The rig looks good! I like the Bumper...

          It gets worse! No, seriously they sure are worth it! It's been a mind blowing, beautiful experience so far(11 month old). you got that right about parents. seems like people that shouldn't have kids have the most and "good" people some times have difficulty having one child. Would like to sleep more. LOL Thanks on the compliment, your rig is very nice!

          • Hey... it looks like we have the same bumper and same cage. At least we didn't paint our rigs the same color!

            In all seriousness, the rig is looking good. I'm not even a father and I don't have as much time as I want for my Bronco... I can only imagine how much less time I'll have for it one day if I ever have kids.

              • Where did you buy your hood? What is the name of that one?

                • Got a little accomplished today. I decided to tie my seats into the cage. I used a chop saw and grinder to make the fish mouths, worked great. I used 1 1/2'' (.120)tubing and 1/4" flat bar. Thanks for the advise Steve and Patrick!

                  • Looks good Billy. Your fish mouth joints look great! Did you get a bigger welder? Are you putting those newly acquired welding skills to work?

                          Thanks. Yes, I figured my problem all along was the machine! LOL

                          The seats are Moabs made by Corbeau. Nice and comfy!

                          • Cage finished

                            Got the cage done. Note to self, when 1/4" melts, you have the machine set too HOT!!!!!!!!! And I can't weld vertically to save my life. I turned the cage on it's side and flipped it over!

                            • Bed liner sprayed

                              I used the U-pol Raptor liner (tintable version). I really liked it, sprayed well with a good consistency. I did however ,run out of material. I ordered a kit off E-bay that came with 4 bottles, I needed 5.
                              Hey Patrick, Look closely at the picture taped to my quarter panel, look familiar? I only imitate the best!
