Do you plan on any bracing or gussets and if that welder is a 120v with flux core wire I wouldn't rely on that stinger too much. Just out of curriosity why so tall.

for the moment its fluxed core welded on there cuz it started to get late but im going to gusset and reinforce both and then go over all the welds with my stick welder

as for it being so tall we just decided to go all out and be obnoxious

and i used to have a ford ranger that i rolled both end over end and sideways so im planning on eventually exo caging the jeep just to be safe
