OK Gerhard

When is "patient" viewing time?

Sal graag daai lift en die rock sliders se mounting will sien! Hoe lyk jou articulation nou?

Is your intention to leave the pipes as they are or will you fill in the gaps with a tread plate type sheet to protect the side panels from stones and mud kicked up by the front wheels?

Great work! :bravo:
