#216649 No other way to do it :wink: Lol. Most of the stuff i have done isn't something that can be bought. And fabbing it myself is much more fun.

Ya man I bet it gets frustrating and you feel like it's taking for ever like me with my jeep. to me the progress looks really slow but to others they are impressed. my neighbor couldn't get over I was building new tube fenders from scratch..

keep up the good work even if it takes you a long time to finish you will be really happy with it in the end.

The weight bar is just to put more weight in front of the front tires to help with traction and cut down on tire spin at the track. Haha It shouldn't be a problem. I've been doing it for 6yrs. hahaha
