Well seeing how many people have this Jeep on other forums. The simple chassis idea went out the window.
mash: Decided to build the chassis to 1:1 specs with a long arm kit. Here it is in the starting phases.

Sort of close eh?

I need to trim that lip off the back of the Jeep and bend the frame so it sits right.

The bends look like a lot of fun (yeah right). Not sure if I'll bend them all.

I have a 10 minute video of how I made the chassis bending and cutting. I'll upload it if there is interest.
Here is a updated preview pic. That r/c forklift and jack sure comes in handy.
