    Body lifts suck...evidence off the increased stress on the mount bolts and mounts...all 6 washers are like this. Heading to ACE right now to get some shorter bolts.



    And on a random note, we got 3 new trucks at work :) Too bad they will all be on the west side of the county [where I dont work...yet] :mad:

    And yeah, I have them aired down to Lower the truck so it's easier to get the body lowered down.

    Lmao...

    I was itching to get the bumper on...and I wasn't sure if I wanted the stinger on yet. But after I tacked it up on the truck I was sold.

    How do you like your Hobart? I was thinking about getting a handler 140 at the end of the year to start learning. I don't want to run a 220 line, and would like something portable.

    Nice! my shock washers look like that :p

    lol, good idea. I almost have to do that to get my trailer out of the garage.

    Looks great!

    good call on the 140 with your moving plans for CO. That's why i don't own a 220v yet. i'd have to wire up a new hose once a year at this point in my life.

    how much is not too much? to be honest, the HF stuff really is't that bad. look around CL though. lots of good welders pop up in my area for decent prices.

    i mean i know most are more than $300. but i don’t think i need no $800 dollar one, at least right now.

    you think i could get a nice one for around $500 or so?
