Repli-tub deficiencies

Yes and no. When I bought my current Scrambler, it was a rust bucket. Most of the rust was hidden by disgusting amounts of bed liner. That being said, the cowl/firewall/A pillar area is in great condition. So, my long-term plan is to completely rebuild the old tub while driving the MD tub. Once the rebuild is finished, I will find the TDK chassis and LS setup and start another build. One of my boys will probably inherit the MD tubbed Scrambler. Ironically, my initials are MD as are both of my sons. Kinda cool.
That is cool.
I think I’m off the MD tub idea. Too scared of the unknown bodywork costs.

My resto is almost done and I'm proud of the before and after. However, I never planned on taking a year to complete this job. No big deal, it's been a real eye-opener. I'm fortunate to have all of the tools necessary to do the build as well as a background as an aeronautical engineer. Patience is necessary if you go with the MD tub, even if you purchase one of the "fixed tubs. Good luck, amigo.
