30 guage is like two peices of construction paper

 

Thats way over kill imo id go 16ga thats what my cb mount abd taillight guards are and they are pretty tough

 

Yeah but when you wheel like a man like Matt does overkill is better than replacing sheet metal again

 

^^^^^ this, i like this hahaha

 

Lol yeah and if you get rocks in your tread they would dent 30g when they fly out when you get back on the road. Find a good balance thats pliable enough to bend smoothly but still rigid.

 

You need a decal that says wheeling like a man

 

Ya but he is making the frame out of weak conduit so a heavier thicker metal doesnt seem worth it and I agree a balance should be found I think 12ga isnt it

 

That's why I said 12-14. Though neither weigh a whole lot for his application

 

Better to have one strong point, in this case the sheet metal, than just have 2 weak points.

 

^^agreed

 

Personally I dont see much of a benefit of doing it but thats just me. Ik a guy that can get the metal at a good price since I do alot of bussiness with him cuz of work. Let me know If you want me to call and see if he can get the metal for you.

 

I just want it to be a little thicker to look good and not dent up from rocks but yea give him a call

 

What gage and how much do you need?

 

dude tested out my contour camera while on my way to work before we go to uwharrie, great video quality its gonna be sick

 

Awesome!
