Arizona Mod Day, Jan. 29th!

Hell, bring $1300 cash and we can install them on your truck that day. lol

 

haha deal!


i bring monopoly money

 

Well, no sleep, food, or liquids for the last few days has me completely drained so I'm calling it a night and hopefully will get a few hours of rest. Man is it nice to be back in my own bed for a night. Peace out AZ TW guys.

 

Sorry, that shit doesnt work at my bank. lol

 

So do any of you guys have access to a welder and wanna try some custom fab shit with me? Its easy stuff, I just need help

 

gscott (garrett might)

 

You gonna cut and fab your own lifted shocks??? Sorry, I had to throw that in there. Now I'm really leaving.

 

yuhp...you brought that up hahahha

 

I wanna fab up a light bar for the roof using the tracks on top to fasten it in...then put 5 round 5" or 4" off road lights on it like PIAAs or similar...if ya'll are interested maybe we could all attempt this together!

 

If you get the material and welder and I am able to make it down I will help you as much as I can. Pretty easy to build.

 

I have a miller 135 it is a wire feed 115volt welder.
I am by no means a welder but I can stick some metal together pretty well,
The welder is pretty light duty so it is limited to time and thickness.
I can bring it along if needed.

 

That would work fine for what he would be using it for. Hell some duct tape, bailing wire, and gum should be plenty for Scotts rig.

 

you may have just saved the day!!


What type of brackets should I use to fasten it to the tracks up top??
Check this thread out. This is how i wanna fasten it...But I don't want the whole rack...just a single bar up top just behind the wind shield.

I'm thinking 1.5" Conduit would be sufficient...then I could run the electrical wires though the tubing for a clean look

 

Just bring a little sheet of 1/4" plate and a cut off wheel and make your own. Like I said, if I'm there and feeling good enough I will definitely help. I do have a few years of fab work in me.

 

Well if you don't make it. Maybe we could meet up some time and bust it out

 

I could measure it, bend it and get all the pieces cut out and then just have a local gut do a couple spot welds

 

Not a problem.

Oh, my brand spankin new Snap On 18v cordless impact showed up today so that will be coming down with me also if I do make it. Sure will make changing tires easy.

 

So a stick of Metal Conduit thats 1.5" in diameter and 10' long is about 20 bucks...That plate metal will be less than that. I think we could get this done for under 50 bucks total...besides the lights of course!


That'll be strong enough right??
