Justin and I build a sweet Roll bar for the CUCV. Also I catch myself on fire again... no big deal.. Don't forget to grab your JH Merch at www.baldeagle.com
The reason why the roll bar back in the day was taller is so your lights would shine in front of your truck not way down the road. With it level the cab is going to block the light causing a big shadow in front of you.
My '79 F350 had a twin loop/ long kicker in chrome with the 4 BIG square KC's forward, 4 small pointed to the back, 2 amber rotators, and a small KC to each side. And yes 130amp alternator and dual batteries. Wish I still had that truck. The 429 could move mountains at just off idle. I swapped it from a 400m
Awesome truck, good job on the roll bar, but please clean the leaves out of that bed! Its been killing me since you bought the truck! Thanks man, keep the vids coming ;)
@jh diesel and 4x4 bro if you want the best out of those kc lights get another so you have 6 and make it where you have 2 sideways 2 backwards and 2 frontwards. That is the best setup for offroding because at night you will be able to see 360 all around you no problems no blind spots and so on. Great job on the rebuild
Fire shirt...EPIC! Laughed through the first 5 minutes and then a replay. Need to ad that tagline to every shirt. "Shirt may catch fire. JH shirts are not fire retardant."
I did custom exhaust for about 5 years. Got very acquainted with one of those machines. Also wadded up plenty of pipe learning to do shit backwards, and sometimes certain bends have to come first. Looks damn good man
I graduated in 1988 my old farm truck looked like that, i wish i still had that truck and probably would if i didn't get run off the road and filp it 4x
Not the nitpick your work there Justin it should have been a double bar go straight down into the bed and then the down bars should have went back up onto the fender Wells that would have looked like an old school Chevy from the Fall Guy!
I like the idea, but I would gone with the loop going down the floor, and standing over the cab. But then again for a project that didn't work out I got roof lights that came off a newer jeep.
Justin take off the snorkel and fabricate one from 3" stainless tube we do heaps here in Australia you can also do a steel one and paint to the same as your light bar.
I've been there before. Burned a few shirts. That's why I don't stand in line with the grinder anymore. Also I love the look. Did something similar to my '88 F-150. I went with the drip-rail clamp style mount like the old patrol cars and department trucks used instead. I still want to be able to install a camper shell and some point.
