yea, that looks badass zane, im just going to go with the fog lights and d rings tho. I just want it for protection. I wont need a winch as the D rings should cover what i need it for.

Im not going to have to pull trucks out of 5 feet of mud lol!

 

Yeah it was nuts like 400.00 for shipping Id much rather buy the metal and have my buddy weld it like I have planned plus I can customize it anyway I want

 

wait, 400 bucks for shipping? what the hell?

 

Yeah its expensive it all depends where you live and its expensive because it comes freight not reg ups ect

 

For $400 I can buy the steel and build a front AND rear bumper....that is rediculous, I just wrote them about there rear bumper too.....thats too bad

 

Yeah it's freight shipping so it's mad expensive. I live really close to them so it was only like $100 for shipping so I went ahead with it. I would have built one if I knew how to weld but I still haven't gotten that far...

 

Hey you got to learn sometime lol I have had some practice welding stuff tonight I welded my spiders for my woods jeep and I did pretty good if you ask me lol

Yeah I know that I can do that on a flat piece of metal but this is a different story everything is rounded so it makes it harder to get that perfect weld. The welder I used is my buddys and he welds for a living(every single day) he did one part of it and my welds looks almost the exact same. Trust me the last thing you want is a skinny weld on this if they are not thick and heavy I will have a grenade for a rear end. I've saw the aftermath of a bad weld job on rear ends and it sure isnt pretty

 

mig Welding ain't that hard really I just need a better welder that uses gas. R welder just runs off the wall outlet with no shielding gas like argon throws a ton of slag if I had one of those I'd of custom welded an exhaust. A roll bar like u see of the Chevy avalanches. And a bunch of other stuff. Now tig welding on the other hand is pure skill I'd love to learn how to do that
