my friend is home for maybe 15 days, hes in the marines.. and he got all of the parts to back the back of his truck and do a 4link around thanksgiving. well they bought a flux core welder and a few people attempted to weld the outer plate of one side's notch in place and im sure you can imagine what it was like.. well this was around 3:30 am so there wasnt any way for me to go get my welder. this morning i got mine and dragged all my shit down the street to his house and helped out all day.. i ran out of wire/gas a little while ago, so hes picking all that up tomorrow.. here's the pics, I actually got farther, the top caps of the notches are on now, just forgot to take pics..

Just an update.. I finished the notches, then someone bumped the gauge on my regulator so I had to order a new one the cali combo is close to done but needs a little more work. heres some pics:



the owner of the truck (Ashley Cady) says thanks to Grant Kustoms for the perfect fit

Thanks guys! A few people were trying to tack stuff in place and ran one bead down the outside plate of one side's notch.. with a flux cored welder, and it was nasty.. Cant wait to finish it all up though, hopefully the gauge comes in tomorrow for the regulator. We already have all the brackets/bridge bars/crossmember ready to weld. He has to drive it back to North Carolina on the 26th
