For extending lower control arms I personally would use .090" cold rolled plate. But .125" MAX. .188" is beyond overkill.

Made a stand for my new bender. JD2 decided not to tell me it's not included and there stand is $160. So I made a replica for 1/3 the price


I haven't welded mild steel in like 6 years haha. And I didn't have the things needed to clean the surface so my welds didn't come out all that great. I wouldn't be satisfied if this was for a customer but it's just a stand and it's mine lol.

Cleaned up a bit

A little shot of a beefed up exhaust hanger for a 1jz catback that Im working on right now.

I hate posting pictures of incomplete work but I forgot to take the finished picture. I since have wrapped the corners of the plate and rod to the exhaust tube and capped the weld on the rod to the plate.

Nothing compared to some of the fab work in this thread, but heres my contribution:

Didnt like the godspeed hydro, so I relocated the mounting points to where I can pull away from the master cylinder vs towards it. Also made a new longer handle. Just have to paint it all now. Using the shittiest welder known to man because I didnt feel like driving out to my dads shop to use the millers.
