Kind of doubtful but we'll see

 

[Grunizzle]

can I get some pictures of your tube bender and the make and model etc.

 

[86 slo-vo]

I've got some somewhere, I'll have to find them once I'm home...

It's a jd2 model 3 bender... With an 1" die and 1.5" die it was $800 to my door, but I made my own stand instead of paying $130 for thiers

Sooo bad lookin! How much less weight is that bed? A;sp wont you have to put something over the back wheels to make it legal?

 

[nate09]

i dont think that bed weighs less than a factory one. i dont remember reading if you finished bracing the shackle mount since you lowered them.

im not really sure on the weight, id say there is about 200LB's in steel

around here they dont care much about fenders and mud flaps, so i doubt ill do much
