Nice work Dan. I know your proud of him. He must have some tremendous patience. Both of your boys seem very mechanically inclined, maybe a used mill?:D:cool:

Not really good pictures but My set up is probably kind of like a 23.
I will be able to adjust alot of the slack out, but I am not sure if it will come below the frame. Maybe a little. Pictures are at the bottom of the page. Kurt

He doesn't know it but he is going to get a whole lot of practice when he builds my cage for me in my Altered. :D Although maybe MY ROLLBAR isn't the place to practice welding. :eek::D
Kurt, from what I can see in the pictures it looks like you have plenty of ground clearance under there. You shouldn't have any problems IMO.
Don
I'll tell yah Don, I love my Costco socks. They last a long time and are comfortable!:LOL::DQuote:

Let'm pratice on the roll bar .... your not getting that on its lid!!! Will you???
Paul
I wish you were closer too Paul, you know your way around a welder, that's for sure. Maybe if you make that move to Tampa? :D
Steve, I gotta try those Costco socks. The Walmart ones I've been buying aren't getting the job done. For some reason they get rust stains around the tops.......maybe I've been doing too much grinding in them. ;)
Don
Hey Don ...... got 1 more year with the oldest in high school ..... then we can try & escape the atlanta area!!! Fla. is on the top of my list.
The new year will bring good things......
