Lots of love yet to give her! It's looking pretty sick so far though! Is that just an optical illusion or is the sway bar tube at a different angle than the crossmember?

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy

seems to fit pretty good , does it have a covering over the top or is it solid steel ?
shouldnt matter mush you can fill the ectra with some styrofoam , foam in a spraycan , or simulair and have it covered in leather or vinyl , speaking of vinyl you might even be able to make the fill in pieces of 2 milimetre vinyl sheet with some heat and patience , might make it eazier to adhere the covering to the corners

I'm a little late on transporting, but since you have a tow pig you need a trailer for low trucks. Like a rollback trailer.

How are the fenders attached to the trailer so they come off easily? At least I'm guessing they come off easily.
