pic of the a-pillar bar and tie in on side.. that i welded. getting better. the settings werent perfect on the welder when i did the tie in.

bottom of the a-pillar.. that i welded

pic of the other side tie in (that you cant see in the first pic) that my buddy welded

pic of the two bars... they aint perfect, but theyll do. dont anyone ask me how i bent anything bc i still have no idea. gonna do the front and rear crossbars this week after work hopefully. the back of the rail will come down when it gets welded.

 

[in4aride]

dunno yet. i know what i want to do for a B and C pillar, as well as shock mounts for the 9100s coming through the floor... not sure if its gonna have a D pillar? still up in the air i guess. my buddy has a couple dimple dies i wanna steal and use some thinner steel and add reinforcements every few inches or so along the roofline (from the roof bar to were the factory rack mounts.. after i remove that) so that will hold it down too.

 

[clean4drxj]
