are they the old forged beams?

 

[Dakota83]

i think so its an 83

i could bend and extend them like these i did. They will probably look alot better though because I am a bit better with a welder than I was then...$350..The only thing is I extend them on the inside of the rad arm bolt because I think it is stronger, wich means they have to be ran with a coilover.

i dont want a long travel set up right now just to get it lifted and thats more then i am looking to spend

check out craigslist san diego and orange county there is a set floating around on there, and 350 isnt that bad a good used set probably run you around 400 to 500 pending who did them and stuff,

lol. why would you want to bend your beams if you don't want long travel?

go buy some lift coils and drop brackets.

 

[Dakota83]

you dont need drop brackets when you have bent beams and i dont want them

Well if $350 is too much for bent beams, I suggest you find another hobby. Not trying to be a jerk, but be realistic about what you need and how much it will cost. Unless you have the ability and necessary equipment to do this stuff, it is going to cost a lot.

im going to make my own was just seeing if there was some one that wouldnt charge that much

The issue is the labor involved to bend them correctly and extend them. Raceranger quoted a pretty cheap price if you as me but if you feel you have the skill then bend away! jsut be careful as keepin camber the same as factory can be pretty tricky if you dont make a jig
