Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
do some fish plate with your logo cut out of the middle...would look sexy!!

Tre5 and MMW does it a lot with thers and they look great with a nice dimension to them

looks cool but why not make the notch a little wider just in case you need to move the axle forward or back. Just seems a little narrow. Other than that it looks top notch as always

Trying to keep it as small as possible saving the extra room for the back seat !

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
I figured that but as you no the rear ends in these travel forward and back when we let the air out. Also my concern is if you are not dead nuts perfect in the center of the fender you wont be able to move it forward or back. But I get why you made them small. Looks great

I have to assume you got a sponsor for that rascal. I looked into those and the setup costs more than most people pay for their motors.

Nice though.
