    Extended Cab 4 door.

    I fit in the back with no problem, but your correct, it is a little cramped compared to a full door version.

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    Javelin missile carrier tubes. They fit the roof rack perfectly, and make great storage for tarps and camo netting. They are just strapped on.:whistle:

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    To make a long story short, it started out as a Dune Buggy I bought for $300, which originally came with a VW motor. I ended up going through a divorce, and had no money to rebuild the VW stuff. So I used a bunch of left over parts I had from previous projects, it is now a Turbocharged propane...

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    I actually found a green tie down strap from TSC, the kind that is adjustable at any length I'm going to use for the rear windows. I plan on finding some green canvas, to cover the rear seat with. I agree with you about the grill, I'm not sure I like it either:neutral:, maybe it'l grow on me...

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    OK, I took your advice, I made a frame for the rear seat.:-D I also made a frame for above the cab, I want to be able to hook the top up to a pulley system, and lift it off, so I figured a frame system would be needed to support the weight. I also used 4 bow tie downs for a boat, they have...

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    Sleeper? That's not a bad idea, you could get one of those reclining back seats out of a conversion van, they are even power:mrgreen:. I really want to be able to remove the whole roof, my goal is eventually to have a soft top also. I plan on putting hooks on the top of the roof, so I can...

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    Here's another pic of the inside, I thought it may of shown the layout a little better.

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    That's a great idea! You just solved my problem, Thank you!:beer: I will probably use wing nuts with bolts instead of snaps, but very simple and easy, I LIKE THAT.:lol:

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    Here are some pics of the inside. I kept part of the front cab back, and added steel over the top, for side to side strength. I also used 14 gage diamond plate on each side just inside the doors, to add strength were the cab was spread wider. Plus diamond plate on the tunnel, it matched the...

    Thanks! You can count me in for Fenton this year, I have plenty of notice.:smile:

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    More pics. I had some time over the Holidays to get some more work done on the 5 ton. So I figured I'd post a few more pics. I have to smooth the welds yet, but the cab is pretty much done. I had the rear door windows cut down 12", and then I made new frames for them, I haven't really...

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    More pics. I was able to get the doors mounted this past weekend, also got the rear cab mount and rear tool box / spare carrier mounted. I lowered the cab mount so it attached to the existing cross member, then used polyurethane mounts with springs underneath to allow for frame flex. I wanted...

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    Here's a better side view, which shows the difference in the door lengths a little better. I hope to have the cab done this weekend, and I ordered door hinges today, so should be able to permanently mount the doors then too. I have a week off over Christmas, I will get the rear door windows...

    Extended Cab 4 door.

    I couldn't resist posting the latest on my extended cab M818 in the new section. Being I only get the weekends to work on her, the process is somewhat slow.:grd:
