Looks good, you heading to K2 on the 24th? Cause it sounds like your Jeep will be ready to hit some trails by then.

I think I am going to cut the lower crash bar off once I lift it.
Ordered my Poly performance Flip kit and upper track bar brace last nite.

Your jeep is "growing up" quick. Looks good. I like that bumper.

Anyone have a Plasma cutter so I can cut the front crash bar off my rig?

Subject: Re: Installed My XRC STinger Tue 21 Sep 2010, 3:25 pm

grinder And a cut-off wheel will work just as well...

saws-all seems to work quicker hack

Yeah I have all them tools just wanted it to look clean and a Plasma cutter will do that without all the grinding.
But thanks

BTW you may want to weld some gussets for the stinger hoop. kinda like the gussets the LOD stingers have.

and sorry to burst your bubble, but the plasma does leave a little slag. the saws-all probably has the least "clean up" I've seen so far for something like that. I spent a lot of time with a plasma recently (pics soon) and can tell you there was plenty of grinding to clean up the cuts.

Yeah, if you can use a plasma cutter and leave a clean line with no grinding at all, you're a lot better at it than me... (Not that that's saying much Laughing

)

Well I never said no grinding but I wanted to grind as little as possible.
Thanks anyway!
