just gonna build a dog house out of square tube. I have a bunch of 0.75 tube... all around the perimeter and then some triangulated bracing... and prolly use riv-nuts to make the panels removable... Prolly incorporate a panel for all the SW instruments out of the L9000 trans temp, diff temp, oil temp... and air valve for front axle engage... I will reuse the napco power pack levers for the Transfer Case H-N-L shift and PTO engage.. I have sourced heavy duty push pull cables for this to avoid linkage... and will relocate them to the floor between the seats... also need to put the runaway valve trip handle there as well...
the driver side foot well feels a little like an astro van LOL...
