- I went with a Rough Country 4.5 lift since they pretty much gave us the lift for free($200)
- I am using a little gas welder 110 for all the sheet metal fab work. Then to do all the cage tubing bumper and rock rails I went with a 220 Miller gas solid wire welder

the finish touches have been put on it and it was delivered to the veteran and his family, we had to do wheel bearing, and tie rod ends, water pump, and a new battery, he has been driving it for a month or so, and he gets looks where ever he goes, so moral of the story, If you can dream it , you can build it so get out there and start wrenching, your imagination is your limits. getbentkustoms.com.
