naw I just like drinking beer and working on the truck at the same time
acually it was pretty much a rushed fab job so I just used a torch to cut all the angles,
you'd think those welds looked pretty good if you saw some the the gaps I had to fill
the design is basicly something dieselpower77 and I came up with after looking at a lot other people's at the local pulls and on the internet. the spring brackets acually came off of a dodge so I could flip the u-bolts upside down and use them to bolt the bars on with. I just drilled them out to accept bigger bolts becaus the dodge ones looked pretty flemsey to me.
I'd like to make them a little longer and a little more precision built but its not like I'm trying to hold 800 or 900hp to the ground either.
