    I'm guessing he is waiting on me to get back home to help him weld. But I could tow him back again if need be! :D

    Welding your sliders will be easier I think. Just a straight bead on a horizontal flat piece.

    Your making your rack out of tube right? Tube can be a big pain in the ass, especially when its thinner and smaller diameter, likes to heat up fast and burn through.

    If your doing tube, cut some extra pieces about a half inch long, liek 10 of htem, and practice welding them together.

    its outa square tubing and angle iron.

    Im really just gonna try and get the bed part done for sure and the top support for the roof. Idk if the full roof rack will be done by Moab.

    the sliders should be fairly easy. A few hours of work.

    He is thinking about it. Not committed. Should really get some real sliders to come tho. The sets are too low.

    and not for long it wont! I have bed rack in the works..and my rear bumper is gonna be done soon :spy:

    Square tubing is easy. You'll be pro at that in no time. Hell if you spend an hour or two a day you could definately have it done by MOAB.

    As for the sliders, yea few hours tops.


    Still at the rate you move your bumper might actually get on before your sliders do. And time still has to build the thing.:eek:

    lol i know! haha time is running short. and that was why i picked square tubing :p haha that and i think it'll look sweet with the angles of the plate bumpers and my hybrid sliders.

    But I just want the bed done and the RTT for sure ASAP so hopefully my car sells soon. then ill worry about the roof rack and the lights.




    Adam...shutup lol

    i am VERY stocked to see what Tim comes up with! Going to be amazing im sure.

    Depending on what he does, i might add a hilift mount to it as well. and maybe later a gas can...but really..all depends on how it turns out!
