1 man 6x6

[TeamCheap]

no not much lately I wasnt feeling well last week and have been busy this week, hopefully this weekend I'll get out there and do some stuff on it then i'll upload more pictures.

Not much of an update but here is another picture.

The frame sides are spaced about 9 1/2" apart here but when it is actually built it will be around 26-28" apart between the frame rails.
This thing will be wider than it is long

I have been busy cleaning up the garage, making more room out there to work/weld and it's looking much better.

Heres some pictures of what I was doing today.(no big deal)

The welding of the halves.

Two nearly identical sides.

A tacked together but rolling frame.

The fenders just set on the tires they will be higher and trimmed when done.

Looking pretty good! I'm sure that's not your final arrangement, but I think you should move your seat, and the engine way forward. Prevent it from bottoming out at the bottom of a hill, and doing a wheelie everywhere (what's the point of a 6X6 that runs on two wheels right?).

It's just sitting there, it will get tucked in as close as I can get it for final.
I could put the transaxle forward a bit and have the engine just behind the rear axles.

I'll know more when I get the front frame crossmembers in and see how much leg room I want/need.

I do want good approach and departure angles for when I'm in the woods so if hanging out it will have to be up but I dont want it to heavy back there your right.

The seat will pretty much be right at the middle axles, I'll know better once I get more done on the general frame.

I admire people who take on stuff like this. I need to do a complete project and not just restomods.

Looks very goog man.
