:shocked!: MAN THAT LOOK GOOD! I for shure thought that you would have to cut the hood. but it clears 8O . thats some good work there. that welder, is that what you use to weld the frame up.

well Ive been looking to get a welder that can weld frames and everything else. Question? dose it weld up to 1/4 with 2pass or just one. I think I may get one like that asap it would be cheaper for me right now. cuz you and everyone else are leaving me in the dust on how good your projects are coming along, keep it up your doing a great job. Also any reason why you chose to use the sleave bags and to go with underaxle set up?

yeah it can weld 1/4" one pass. and i chose sleeves because i hear they ride fucking great, and i chose under/behind because of room, and i think it looks alot cleaner having the bags down low.
