http://www.toolsplus1.com/eztube.htm  The only thing I don't like about it is it wont bend past 110 degree's. Other than stingers I haven't needed to bend more than 110. The bender kick butt.
I should get a bunch done on Sunday. Bob keeps adding to the list of things to do which is good.  :flamer:

Looks good. the rear section looks tall to me though. maybe it's an optical illusion :dunno:

The owner is a big dude, thats why I removed the top and raised the roll cage.. Plus he wanted a seat in the back so it had to be tall. He wanted to accommodate someone my size in the rear. I am 6'3" and when I sit in the rear seat I have around 2" of head room the best I can measure. It doesn't look that tall in person plus I have a few more tubes to add.

The hoop behind/above the driver seat is the same height as my 4Runners. I think not having a top throws it off.

Don't forget the rear with no weight is sitting a bit higher than the front adding to the "illusion"
IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5
