Looks like its gonna come out like a show truck dude, i like it. You mentioned just buying a bunch of metal parts and hoping it holds together. From what i understand in my resarch, arms and stuff that gets the initial impact from bad landings or wrecks you want to leave plastic or flexible so they don't transfer the impact into the chassis and break or bend the chassis and more expensive parts. Either way, im sure it will be fine.

It is complete. If it was not raining it would be the day that I could take it out. Maybe tomorrow.

Well... it didn't last long. Went ahead and bought some scorched turnbuckles to replace.

But it did look good before it didn't.

Do not buy Integy parts if you plan on bashing.

I see nothing wrong with integy aluminum if it's just for on road light bashing or for a SHELF it's still purty

That is true. I am jumping and bashing hard. Parts just break every time I take her out.
