Homemade Mods...let's see 'em

I'm interested in having a single thread with all of the homemade mods posted to it. I think it would be awesome to see all of the handywork done by (non-professional fabricator) forum members. Anyone else? I don't know how to start something like that other than this...

As soon as I can, I will post the hand-painted FJ logo on my tire cover, courtesy of my incredible wife!

Re: Homemade Mods...let's see 'em

by homemade mods, do you mean, not store bought? Because some are done by "professionals" as one time only deals. Do those count?

Look over at www.d-90.com and see the custom mods section. I think this is what we mean.

I'm hoping to see non-professional fabricators coming up with their own idea and going out into the garage and making it themselves rather than buying something and bolting it on. I don't know what Bandi does for work but the Bandi-mount is the type of thing I'm referring to. The other forum member that made their own rock rails out of square tubing with the Diamond plate step (sorry, I can't remember who right now)...those are great!

That was Treknwil. I only ask because my buddy made my sliders for me. His garage is a little different tho...
