Good question. So no one steals em?


You guys should quit bickering though its almost a full blown eFight.

 

And more, just for the hell of it.

Those sure are some pretty welds.

 

Thank you.
Thats my tig work. I still have a ways to go with it.

 

Ah, never seen one of those in person. The humidity level is more than sufficient here.

 

They work well when the weather is dry, but on humid days, the make it miserable. The place im in now has central heating/air, and it rocks!

 

I thought everywhere had Central heat and air.

I have you beat. I have central heat and air and a central vacuum system.

 

The funniest part about this thread is the words "internet fabricator" and "Web Wheeler" are being said to actual fabricators and to people who build and wheel rigs hard.

 

I think the concerns voiced in this thread are pretty legitimate.

The mounting system is questionable, and it does sit a little low. sliding over stuff doesn't work if it catches the front of the crossmember.

 

Thanks for the critique.
People just need to remember that it's not a finished product, nor is it a permanent fixture. I am no different than most jeep owners, and I sure things will change and improve as time goes along. I have a few things to do before I would ever attempt to wheel it.
I am itching to get it off road, so I may just weld it to the unibody rails, and just cut the welds when I get the frame stiffiners in.

 

Nice work, I see what you are shooting for and understand why you wanted to keep it simple. And of course with any incomplete fab job you and others will find things that need to be tweaked. Some people just get jealous and pissy because you have nice equipment, so feel the need to measure peckers. I'm a manual machinist professionaly, and have been welding since I was a wee one and must say those are some nice a$$ beads.

Oh, yeah You wanna bet your rig that I can run a lathe better than you? I will be at the shop in 11.5 hrs. be there with your title! Ya sissy!

 

Hahaha!
Thanks, man!
I've actually been wanting to save my pennies, and get a lathe and mill. I've never used either, but I can only imagine the endless possibilities. Some day.

 

adding machining to your fabrication skills automatically gives you 'master of the universe' status. lol

 

There.
A quick and dirty weld job. Figured it would just be easier to weld it up and cut it off, than deal with the pissing match. Sorry, it still hangs "low", but it will just have to stay that way until the 4-link and axle swap.
