RADesigns '82 + updates

So been busy building shifters but in my spare time the little that there is I've been doing some needed updates. Hi steer, RUF's and shocks, added some lights for some night wheelin', floor light. Cool new pimpin' stickers. Pics of the rear cargo hatch and all it holds.
Did mods to the double cardan joint to get more travel before binding, went from 20 to 30 degrees angle.

More updates

Did a simple steering stop reinforcement by putting 7/8" long 1" diameter rod in the stops and then welding the tops. Replaced my old Baja shifter with the soon to be new model Baja II. Added a new fuse panel and did some wiring. Added a Holley fuel pressure regulator and a gauge.
