it doesnt matter if the bars are bent on his truck its a fact that a straight tube is stronger then a bent one.

steering is pretty thick.

not sure why you call us haters, was no hate'n going on.

Well, I think that stuff they use to go under tile would be better -- heavier duty maybe.

Personally, I prefer plywood if you use pressure treated so you can do water crossings.

(okay, that was mean, lol...)

I'll be running stock F-150 drag-link and tie-rod to start, but I'm going to get the 1 ton stuff like Scott when I get the high-steer spindles machined and get some arms for it. I have the spindles, but I'm going with the stock F-150 setup to start.
