What size tube are you going to use? 1" & 3/4 looks good for a bumper. :twocents: 

Not sure yet... I think I'm gonna splurge on a stick... but if not, then I'll use the galvy for the stinger, and the steel that I have sitting in my garage (same stuff I used for the mounts) for the small stuff.

Ooooh I did not sleep well last night.  The first couple welds I did I had forgot to turn the welding hood 'ON'.  When I got done tacking it I took the hood off and I could barely see... I's wondering why the hood wasn't getting very dark.  :shake: :headshake: So I turned it ON and uh.... it got a lot darker once the arc hit :disturbed:

:doh:

Thanks guys :hyper: I'm quite anal about getting stuff just right :doh: But.... that's just me :disturbed:

I can't wait to get the stick to finish it up.  I think one stick will be more than enough for the front bumper and then some.... I will be doing some research as far as bending :disturbed: I'm :willynilly: when it comes to measuring just right and getting even bends and :blah:


OH it's been a LONG day.. I"m goin to bed :goodnight:

:disturbed: I WAS supposed to do it today.. but you know how it goes when family calls.  :doh: So I spent the day with family today.  This week in the evenings I should be able to get into the front end and see whats up.  I can't get the rest of the steel for the bumper till after Friday anyway.. and maybe even not till after the following payday :down:


Then again, I can just pull it apart and look when I go to swap in my new thirds :eyebrow: :love:

Well, I don't know what to think about this.  :headscratch: Eithere you don't know what a Toyota third looks like or somebody else don't know how to package a third and shipped it at the same time. Cause this is what the just brought.  :dunno:

I said yup that's one of them.  :yesnod:  :eyebrow:

They are still looking for the other one.
