@Wmikew06 Do you think the Pfrd stuff is worth it? I was actually thinking of making a post to see if guys think the more expensive cut off wheels are worth the money.
Not sure about storage But I can honestly say red labels suck in the frozen snow. They already had typical cracking so I can't say they got any better or worse from the cold temps in the north.
Where's the like button?? You sir are doing a awesome job! I'm not a buggy guy at all and your nailing the lines on these things. Are you using bend tech to speed up the process for knocking these out a bit faster? Keep up the good work.
Leave the monster cup for stainless and mild steel. They don't work that great for alum. Looks like that other gas lens was a 6 or 7 just run that for your aluminum work and run 12-15 cfh unless someone else is paying for your argon. As a few others posted you can not get aluminum clean enough...
Some guys on Pirate use the TTB front axle or some stuff, not sure I would sink money into once personally. The rear axle should be a Sterling 10.25 if in fact it is coming out of a 2fiddy. 10.5 were in the F-350 as far as I know. Both had 35 spline shafts.
If you need rear suspension parts (control arms) let me know. We have a small line of chassis and suspension parts for late model mustang stuff. We can also do custom control arms, so if you want to do rear sway bar delete etc. We can switch fixtures on the fly.
If you guys are looking at something inexpensive and portable its hard to beat to the Lincoln squarewave 200. Plus you know there not going anywhere so parts and service will be there when/if you need it.
Cut the exo and do that thing some justice, that's a bad rig. I hate exo cages... I wheel with all buggies and I have been able to keep my junk nice. I like pulling into the parking lot with something that looks like in belongs at the mall or car show and surprise people. I guess I don't get the...
Please keep (at least) the bed sides on this thing so it looks like a MJ. Awesome build :dblthumb: I'm not even in the market and I can't wait for this to come up for sale.
Nate, you will like it. As long as your not doing 10 hours a day production work I bet it will do everything you need it to just fine. Really how many times are we welding 1/4" alum. Its complete overkill for a fuel cell etc. If you need to do a lot that thick you can always add helium.
Im up at Lincoln electric taking some classes and we can use all the machines they have. Let me say that I currently have a PT 225 and a older 300/300 machine for daily use. I beat the hell out of there small 200 square wave machine yesterday welding a bunch of alum for over a hour at 185 amps...
Get rid of the Fram filter 1st. Plenty of people have had issues with the filter collapsing. It doesn't sound like it will solve your issue completely but it's cheap insurance before it messes up the motor when it's sitting on flat ground.
