I like it...now a quote on shipping to memphis... :twisted:

Looks great! I bet they weight alot though.. Thats some big tubing!

Do you have any pics of the underside/how they mount to the pinch seem and frame?

Thanx for the compliments everyone. I'll try to take some pics of how they mount tomorrow. We bolted and welded the brakets to the frame and bolted to the pinchweld.

I can speak for alot of people (who weld) when I ask if you have any measurements on those... You should get some pics and come over to the Hobartwelders.com board and show those off in the 4x4 section or the projects section...

I'd really like to see the measurements though as I soooo could make those... and would... and hopefully will!!!

PM me dag nabbit!

hehe

Actually I have the Nerf bars installed so I'd just use the same mount points... but I'm more interested in the size of tubings you used and the guage.

Thanks!

looks like 2" square tube and 2" round tube, i'm guessing 1/8" wall

But my proportions are all missed up from looking at 10 ft long cars, not these long 14 footers :lol:

Very nice looking, and clean job as well, good choice with those round tubes instead of the blocky bars.

I used 1/4in on my 2x2. 1/8in would bend very easily. I wanted 3/16in but they didnt have any..

Those look awesome...very nice work. I would really like to have a set identical to them!!! :twisted:

Looks like a good setup....nice work

Mass production is on schedule right? :wink:

Gringo Loco · **Posted:** Wed Mar 21, 2007 12:38 pm

More pics up in Fabrication section.

main bar is 2"x2" square tubing 11 gauge
Arm bars are 2"x1" rectangular tubing 11 gauge
step bar is 1 3/4" round tubing 1/4" thickness(i think)

Well I'm not stitching those together with the Handler 140... hehe Gonna have to get my brother-in-laws 220volt.

Gringo Loco · **Posted:** Wed Mar 21, 2007 1:07 pm

Thats what my dad was using 220V. The best part was they cost around $130 in materials, but my dad told me steel prices were going up 15% locally.
