    The fabricator series on youtube details an entire tube front build. Maybe give it a watch

    I cut off my front frame rails and wheel tubs. Tubed out to a detachable bash bar, made a couple support bars up to the fender, and in between for the intercooler. some brackets for the grill and headlights and I was done. engine front.JPG

    I have a bunch of photos in my build thread. I decided to make mine removable for easy engine removal if need be. I cut and boxed the front frame rails just in front of the sway bar mounts and went from there.
