If you have a welder make your own,.. its A whole lot cheaper!!!!! And you can make it how you want it, length, width, any extras like light bar or light tabs, ect,ect. That's what im doing.

You can weld aluminum also. Its pretty easy to learn how to weld. And a good welder runs about 400-500 bucks. Just think that's the price of your average roof rack or bumper. Then imagine how much money you'll save when you start building all your own stuff just by purchasing the steel (or Aluminum ) needed to do the project.

LOl. Ya he tells me that every day. Whenever I need something welded I just use his or have him do it for me. I need to buy my own. But just haven't got around to buying mine yet. Lol.

Yep why not. Like you said not much to loose but much to gain. Kirk bought his Lincoln Welder from Lowes during the employee discount day and got a good deal on it.
