Still can't beat the prices at Sowell Steel.

So are you up to some welding??

no you cant beat sowell steel and i have some plate i might be willing to part with if not there is a place on the island by my cabin were its like 30 cents a pound lol my secret source only cost me arount 40 for 120 pounds of 1/4 and 3/8 plate.
Is who up for some welding me ALWAYS so what are you planning on making the front hoop out of ?



???? wait wait Wait what ever happend to your multi mount or did you get a new winch

3 out of 4

Well, at least 3 of the 4 Ryan's can weld so I guess I'm talking to any one of y'all.

Front hoop? IDK, depends on what's laying around at Keith's place.:notworthy

I might need to wait a couple weeks though. :scratch:

We really should do a group thing somewhere that has lots of tools for fabrication work and room for a BBQ and cooler:bdrunk:

I can weld.....I have a my trusty little Craftsman (Lincoln) 120v MIG welder....It does all the sheetmetal and tube work I have done so far.

I can bring it anywhere it needs to go....

Steel

If you guys need steel let me know! I'm going to make a DOM run to Seattle early next week. For that matter, let me know if you need bumpers or sliders done too

 

[Albino 94LTD]

I'm good, thanks.

Interesting pictures.

I guess I should post up a few after shots

 

[Mickelsons]

yes, please post some finished pictures.

The sliders look nice, intrested to see how you mounted them.

I got lazy and bought a set from trail gear for a reg-cab toyota, they ended up being the right size for my sport and there not that much $$$

That's a cool looking bumper. also, where did you get those tail lights?

They are the standard clear tails w/reflective tape on the edges and LED bulbs. WSP hasn't stopped me since I put the tape on.

 

[Mickelsons]

I have the same ones on my F-350, but have been unable to find them for my explorer, I found them once, but they were sold out. I have not been stoped with the f-350 yet...Knock on wood... Do you know of a place that still has the explorer lenses?

 

[Spdrcer34]

They are VERY hard to find. A couple years ago, you couldn't go on eBay and NOT find them...there was a set listed on here in the classifieds last week for $100, and they sold.

...but here's something interesing :

Looks good - - what about the spare? Shoe-horning it in the original location at less pressure?
