Yeah, that would be nice to have. I guess you might have better luck with the cheap bender if you used a spring or mandrel in the tube.

Good to know the dies aren't sized quite right for tube <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I didn't see it covered in here, what width are your tires and wheels? I am assuming those are 15's and your sig says the tires are 33's. Your truck looks amazing!

Getting the Wheeling Fever

Very nice build justice, i built a similar front bumper out of i think 12in 1/4 thick C-chanel cut down to about 6 or eight wide. I should have used boxed steel like you, would have been way stronger but i had this laying around, i also built some rock sliders they hug and wrap around the rockers quite nicely i can get some pics up if you want. Are you using a 110v welder or 220v. Also did you crank the t bars any after the gen II coils, mine is soon to have a brand new 4.3 (sittin in the shop)and 36 swampers. kudos on the build
