I built one similar to what Crawdad has drawn up. A few things I would do different are as follows: Use larger casters and bolt them in place. I used 3" casters and used wood screws and when turning one ripped out from under the cart. I had to jack it back up and re-screw it in place. Go with...

I am in the process of putting the old girl back together now after stripping her down and cleaning/painting the chassis. I don't know what to use anti-seize, thread lockers, sealants etc... on? ?:? I've searched and searched on here and didn't find any rules of thumb. Am I missing some obvious...

Consumables in bulk! Wire wheels, cutoff wheels, flap discs, spot weld cutters, PB Blaster, roloc discs, etc... You will never have enough. I haven't had to buy much in the way of specialty tools, it's an old basic truck. I primarily use my grandfathers toolbox filled with 50 year old tools...

I'm dealing with this same dilemma...I have already had mine for 2 years and just have a few panels mocked up because I don't know how to weld yet. Do I bite the bullet and go glass and be back on the road in a quarter of the time or go through the learning curve and keep my bronco factory...

Don't give Ford any ideas!!

Looks fantastic. Nice work.

BFG AT's. I have had two sets on my Ranger. On set lasted 86k and the other 65k miles. I just replaced them with some procomp AT's because I wanted a change...I like them so far.

Looks great! nice job.
