    hmmmm just flat bed it and cage the rear. that way you will have a bumper built in lol or you can just cage the whole thing. and iv welded rears before... only issue i had was tires ever couple of years with the onroad travel. but detroit or one of the little mini rachet lockers are ok. or you can take a 3rd member from a 02 and build a little computer for it. they have schematics online and use the electric locker.... up to you

    So......................

    You slashed your Km2s which are new tires perhaps?

    You sold your old tires which are perhaps your new Km2s, maybe they are your old Km2s?

    You slashed your new? old? Km2's but you sold your old tires, so you're going to buy a detroit locker basically?

    Conclusion, If P_tree never slashed his tire which then he would of never sold his old tire, therefore he wouldn't of bought a locker. :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    did this guy ever fix those welds?

    i have never posted on this thread but, i have been watching and looking past some of the attitude i can say with out a doubt that some of the most experienced guy's on here believe many things to be either untrue or unsafe.

    supra tt, mjp, and jlee, and moose come to mind mjp has a race truck for christ sake if somebody like that gives advice why not at least listen and try to apply what they are saying?

    jlee owns a fab shop and i think his work looks nice very nice! when a metal fab guy say's that the welds are borderline unsafe then even offers to fix the welds for free just so that you don't injure or kill yourself or someone else why not take that advice?!

    if he had said that about something on my rig i would be hesitant to drive the truck at all! not at least without having someone check it out. i know your a young guy and some of these fellas have been a little harsh but, i do believe harsh or not it's probably good advice. also if theres anybody on this forum to take any advice from these would be the guy's.

    i do however applaud you for doing all of this to your truck and being so young makes it even cooler. dude 19 is young to have all the knowledge you have thats pretty cool bud just heed some of the other guy's warnings especially about welding and such. while i don't know how to weld personally i do understand the concept behind it and those look scary to me.

    either way good luck and be safe out there :)

    ps.. i would avoid saying that your doing 80mph on the highway in an unproven home made sas'd truck with sketchy welding imo comments lie that will only bring more flames to this thread.

    i have to admit it's pretty cool this kid this to his truck i wish i had the skill and balls to try something like that. with that being said some of the more prominent members believe things to be unsafe and upon seeing those welds more than a few commented about fixing them jlee even offered to do it for him which is really nice btw.

    being safe and responsible is more important than saving face or having a cool truck. if this guy has a failure on the road due to welds on his truck it could be very bad.

    when the op chimes back in i hope he doesn't think i was trying to be a smart ass. i was just letting him know that certain guy's here actually do know what they are talking about and even offered to help. i thought i would just relay that to him in a more friendly manner hoping he would listen to reason.
