Thanks for the pics. I got a MIG a couple of years ago to rebuild my FJ40. Man once you learn how to melt metal you feel like you can do anything! I do, however need more practice.
If you ever make sliders please keep us informed. I'd like to follow along.

Isn't that the truth. I learned to weld in Tech School during High School and have used it throughout my life. There is something primal about melting metal together that just satisfies the soul. Weird huh.
Once you get the mind set that you can do anything you tend to look at things in a completely different light. Bumpers, sliders, roof racks, light bars, strut guards, custom trailers etc all seem to become easy.
A bumper that would cost you $700 can be built in your own garage for less than $300 easy and the pride in doing it yourself can not be measured in $$$.
If you want to see what can be done, check out Cowboy4X4's work.
