Re: 72' Stepside 2 1/2 Rockwell Pond Truck

that looks really good,mind me asking, but what kind of tubing did you use for your link arms? is it seamless, the reason i ask is if it is not seamless it might not be strong enough, just my opinion, especially with 600 horse and rockwells, correct me if I am wrong.

Re: 72' Stepside 2 1/2 Rockwell Pond Truck

the four link bars are not seamless they are mild steel 2 x 2 3/8 thick. all the brackets are 3/8's plate. everything else is 1/8 thick ( all cross members, metal used to box frame, all of it is 1/8 ). the round ends on my bars are seamless chromemoly ( i paid like a $100.00 for 30 inches )
