I am thinking about going with Ruffstuff Heims 1.25 for the lowers and 3/4 for the uppers. Over kill? Just right?

I'm running 7/8s all around in the front. The 7/8s are probably too small for my lowers, but I'm building the brackets to accommodate 1.25's when I do bend/break them. I think 3/4 uppers would be fine.

Don't wait on me, if I'm lucky I'll have it up and running in a month or so, but that's optimistic at best. After that, I fully expect you guys to help me pay it off :mrgreen: :flipoff2:

I wanted to build the rear frame last night but found out the plug on my welder is different then the wall plug in the warehouse so I just went ahead an starting prepping for the frame rebuild by removing my axles completely along with anything attached to the rear frame and most of the stuff attached to the front frame.





Side note:I love having a forklift now :flipoff2:
