Ohh, I like it!  That is probably a lot of money worth of box tube steel!

i had 20 feet, and thats what is in it now, i am just now getting into the new steel i bought monday, the new steel was 72 bucks for 120 feet of 1x1 tubing 16ga

Starting to look like something.

got the metal for the footboards attatched today, and it holds my 305lbs without bracing, so i think those welds are good, but im still gusseting it lol, also got the stance figured out, the front is going to be slightly higher than the rear,( i know, this looks funny) but it works out for the best for me, , so if ya dont like it....ohwell , ima run 24x8.50x12's up front, and as it stands, its going to give me like 1" higher in the front, yet have a real good amount of ground clearance
