Been a while... Here's the progress.
I haven't posted in quite a while. I've been busy either working on the runner or working so I decided to post some pics of the latest mods.
I made some custom tube doors:
Completed:
Put to use
I also have done some other tube work the rear quarter protection and front fender bar. I also modified my old bumper slightly.
Rear:
Bumper:I'm still working on the turn signals..
I made an interior roll cage:
I also put in an inchworm dual crawler with 4.7 gears. This thing makes all the diference off-road. One of my best purchases by far:
I put in hydro assist a little while ago also. Makes turning extremely easy. I kept blowing power steering pumps before getting it.
Just a few other pics flexing from this weekend:

so many questions but i'll just start with the doors
i've actually been mapping out some tube welded doors myself, although a little bit differen't design than yours. I was wondering if you would be willing to refab a set of those, or if you had the blueprints to create another set?

Thanks for all the compliments.. It is a money and time pit..
My wife is already about to kill me, with all the time I spend and the mess I make out of the garage.
I probably shouldn't be doing too much fabing for a while. I didn't draw anything this time before I made them. I had a basic concept and completed the design while I was building them. I could send you some basic dimentions if you wanted them.
