That departure angle is killer.

Welds so clean you can't even see them.

So the design has been approved. So here's the rough design

[fourxfunk]

Oh nice, I like how the sides taper in at the bottom.  That's a really nice shape.

[Deadpilot]

Thanks. This bumper will be replace the plastic rear corner and stock bumper. So I made it flow around the whole rear end of the X and have nice clean lines. I'll start the fab work up and then everyone will really get the feel of it.

I like the way the blue accent color will match the blue in the SCCX sticker.  Well done.

Looking good, guys.

Are there future 4x4 conversion plans? 

[Deadpilot]

I'm not sure what his plans on that one is. I'm working on the rear bumper design right now. So once this one is done I can work on another one.

Once this one gets done and I start working on 2nd Gen one, no one may want my old shrock haha

I would be.. keep me updated on the shrock.

Looking good, guys.

Are there future 4x4 conversion plans?  

I wish I could say a definite yes. I've been asking Jason on how his conversion went: to convert a 1st Gen would have a few less parts/electronics to worry about compared to a 2nd Gen, but I don't see myself starting it for at least another year until I get a few more skills and info under my belt. Once I get another daily driver then I can let myself really get into the idea. Also I might be moving around that time as well.

Here's another photo of the template so far:

New project.

You have to get a hold of Steevo and Kenny. 
   If an OE 4wd conversion is what your looking for.....he solid axel swaps and puts in an atlas in one of these about once a month.
   You can probably score the entire OE 4wd drive train, including drive shafts and transfer case, for next to nothing.

Front diff
Front axles
F&R drive shafts
Transfer case
Knuckles/ Spindles
Shifter
All the cables

I think they just throw this stuff away.

[Alex]

Oh I'm gonna have to talk to them once I'm back, that sounds excellent. I figured if I were to go 4WD, might as well go SAS, bt if the normal 4WD parts are readily available as such, then great!

Someone is selling an entire gen 1 for 3k on here

[knightrider]

and it comes with a shrockworks rear bumper... oh wait nevermind.
