    Thanks dude. I'm a little concerned that the 887s in the front might not be enough. Hope I don't have to go to the 886s

    I knew your truck was bad ass but I gotta say pictures don't do it justice. Your truck looks awesome on the road!

    I had them when I didn't have a bumper funny enough. Then I switched and went to the 887s.

    I think your 887's will be ok. I've got 600# coils with a plate bumper and winch and no problems. I do have 700# in the garage for when I get full skids

    The main structure should be square but behind the tire round. Ill post a pic of mine in a bit to show what I mean, but I don't think it should all be round, looks weird and wimpy for some reason to me.

    Im teaching myself. It really just takes practice and learning your machine. I just have a little 110 flux core mig welder from harbor freight. It works great for the stuff I do. If you pick one up just head to your local metal shop and pick up some drops from their cutting machine. Ive done all of the welding on my trailer. ONce you figure out how to get good penetration it doesnt matter how ugly the weld is. Nothing a grinder cant fix :cool:
