yeah i have an account on pirate fogot my password lol... my buddie recommended me to it he is a toyota guy think his name on there is toyotakid or yotakid i forgot now LOL!! yeah i look on here and jeepfourm alot for ideas! then i look on google for more LOL... the only prob is lack of steel lol OHH and my welder is a hobart handler 140 i think!!

 

handler 140 isnt bad. does up to 1/4 with flux, and little over 1/8 with gas sheilding. I would recomend upgrading to 220v but do what you can

I have gotten most of my steel for free. I see a piece i ask if i can have it. not hard to do. Best to make friends with an iron worker or a tinner for the good free stuff though. occasionally i will buy some but alwaysed used. i would rather spend 2 hrs grinding than pay full price.

The rock slides i installed today (on build page) where old fork extentions for a fork lift. I saw them laying at local lumber yard and offered $40. got them for $50. 2 8ft 2x6 1/4in wall. pretty cheap if you ask me.

 

yeah ik iv read most of your build lol or at least looked at the pics!! im a visual guy! but yeah ik im the same way but small town its kinda hard.. and with scrap going threw the roof every bit of it is going to the scrap yard : (

 

im visual to. I try take as many pics as possible and to update daily. If you need more pics of something just ask. If you need to know how to build something. just ask. I have probably built it or will build it then let you know how. If you do have questions ask on build page so i dont miss it.

Craigslist is your friend when it comes to finding stuff. Not only look at stuff but run an add of what you wanna buy. be aggressive and you will find great deals on metal or whatever.
